BBNaija: ”I knew TTT was married. It wasn’t in my place to tell Bisola” – Bassey Reveals in New Interview
Big Brother Naija housemate Bassey, who was evicted from the reality show two days ago, has kicked off his press rounds in Lagos.
Some weeks ago, a photo of Bassey, with Thin Tall Tony outside the BBNaija house surfaced online, thereby setting the Internet buzzing and people speculating that he was indeed aware of TTT’s marital status.
In an exclusive interview with Olisa Adibua and Maria Okan of Beat FM, Bassey, who is from Cross River state, opened up on his strategy as a housemate, why he chose not to meddle with TTT and Bisola‘s affair while knowing fully well that he was a married man, (read here) his girlfriend and his dream of becoming a media person.

He also claimed that he did actually know that Thin Tall Tony is married but that it wasn’t in his place to tell Bisola, who was TTT’s lover during his stay in the house.
See excepts of the interview:
Asked if he knew TTT was married:
”Sincerely, I got into the house on the second week, so I thought introductions were already in order during the first week.
I wouldn’t just jump into any issue when I’m not invited and I didn’t have that opportunity at any point. Like I said: Tony is a grown man and he’s a really good person. I’m sure he knows why he did what he did.”
Asked what he thought of TTT’s conduct at the house:
”Tony is a very well-spirited fellow. I’m sure whatever happened was just part of the game.”
Asked if he told the housemates about his girlfriend
”Yeah! Debbie knows, everybody knows. Before I decided to tell anybody about that, I thought about it. Tayo Faniran was at Big Brother Africa and he had a girlfriend who was pregnant for him and he was there till the final.
The reality is what matters; it’s not bad for you to have a girlfriend. It’s not bad for you to be in a relationship.”

I agree with him, it’s not in his place to tell bisola about TTT’s marital status.
