Check out the new look of the BBNaija house

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported about the look of the newly upgraded house for the BBNaija 2021 housemates.

The diary room is so colourful! There is now a washing machine. It seems Big Brother finally listened to viewers who wondered why such a basic item was missing in the last edition.

The shared room is a blend of white and what looks like teal green.

The wall is beautiful work of art. It is understandable why the diary room got many people's attention this year. Against a brick-painting design is a multicolour chair with the chandelier hanging low.
