Melino wins ‘BBM’ finale ticket worth R250 000

Big Brother Mzansi (BBM) shook things up with the introduction of the boiler room, leaving both housemates and viewers on edge as no one knew what to expect.

However, the boiler room has been good so far, as it offers much-needed gifts for housemates. Recently, Mmelesi Mothei popularly known as Melino won a ticket that will take him straight to the finale.

By now, viewers and housemates know that there is always a catch when it comes to Biggie’s spoils; this time is no different as the ticket that had to be bought with the R250 000 that will be deducted from the grand prize of R2 million, will only be effective if Melino survives this weeks eviction.

Entertainment commentator, Jabulani Macdonald took to his X (formerly Twitter) page to share the news.

Initially, Big Brother’s ninjas hid the envelopes, and Big Brother instructed that the housemates should look for the envelopes hidden around the house, those who find them, should guard the envelopes as they will use them inside the boiler room. Then, the lucky housemates were Swiss, Nsuku, Beekay and Uyanda. With Swiss’s purchase making them enjoy a Friday all-white party.

Recently, Big Brother had a pool full of colourful balls that had red envelopes underneath. This is where Melino dipped his hands in the player’s envelope.
