Bigbrother winner UTI to spend most of the prize money on new album

Uti may spend prize money on
album Nigerian
Indications are strong that of
Winner Big Brother Africa All Stars
reality show, Uti Nwachukwu, may
be using a good size of the $200,000
prize money to promote his music
album and probably push his music
career a bit further.
Before Uti got into the BBA house
three months ago, he had launched
his debut single. Reports have it that
intense promotional efforts would
kick-start soon to give more
publicity to the song while he still
basks in the euphoria of the sweet
victory.
However, his victory has a bitter
side to it. While he was in the BBA
house, his father had passed away.
Expenses from strong funeral plans
may also be waiting in tow to take a
slice off the prize money.
The BBA this year had been a tight
competition with four other house-
mates. Uti beat his closest rival who
was widely expected to win, Munya
Chidzonga, from Zimbabwe, by
eight votes to seven.
According to host IK, this was the
closest ever finale with the winner
securing the votes from 8 countries
and the runner up from 7.
As soon as he was announced
winner, Uti jumped into the sofa
and started singing the Nigerian
national anthem.
