BLANTYRE--Organisers of Big Brother Africa announced on Wednesday that entrants this year would have to be in pairs and the cash prize for the winning pair is $300, 000.

M-net said: "Just when DStv audiences thought that they had seen all the incredible twists and turns that mega-hit reality-TV franchise Big Brother Africa could possibly include, M-Net’s sensational series has pulled off another huge surprise.

"And you know it’s a massive announcement when even the fact that this season’s brand new cash prize of a cool USD 300 000 isn’t the headline-grabbing news!

"This means that anyone who wants to enter season 7 must partner with another person to enter as a pair," Multi-Choice said.

It added: "So whether you enter with your best friend, boyfriend, girlfriend, mom, dad, brother, sister, boss, husband, wife, neighbor, hairdresser, whomever…you must just make sure that you enter as a pair. So who will take the journey of a lifetime with you? Remember you may have to spend a long time with them in the house so choose carefully!

Big Brother Africa also announced it was welcoming two new countries Liberia and Sierra Leone to the Big Brother House for the first time ever, while this time round, Ethiopia bows out of the game and Mozambique will take on a new role that will be announced at a later stage.

"That means that this year, if you want to enter Big Brother Africa you can do so if you and your partner are citizens from one of the following participating countries: Angola, Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Malawi, Namibia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe," M-net said.

Both partners must come from the same country, must be 21 years or older, must be fluent in English and must have a valid passport.
