…as celebrities engage in electrical fittings<\/p>\n

By: Okosun Dennis<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Brain machine of the Celebrity Come Build Naija Reality TV Show, Munirat Antoinette Lecky, fondly called Anto Lecky, has been speaking about her driving force as the ultimate goal to win the CCBNAIJA Reality TV Show.<\/p>\n

The multi-talented Nigerian-American personality, who hails from Edo State, was born to the family of Mr and Mrs Lecky in Newark, New Jersey, in the United States of America over three decades ago.<\/p>\n

Her intelligence and smartness is a force to reckon with among other contestants. Asked how her stay in the house has been so far, she smiled and said: “It\u2019s been fun and interesting. I am always interested in learning and trying new things. That’s why I came into the show and<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m having a great time working on a house and it\u2019s also interesting being around my colleagues. It\u2019s not bad but, honestly, I can\u2019t lie; I want to win the prize and then go back to my house, because I prefer my own space,” she explained.<\/p>\n

Anto strongly believes that despite the fact that there are other intelligent guys in the house with huge fans and more money, she is at an advantage winning the show.<\/p>\n

“I believe I have the grace of God. In general, I am working really hard; anything I do I put all of myself into it and I\u2019m not taking this lightly. I\u2019ve been in a reality shows before, so, I know how this game works. I am hoping that people that are watching this show are more interested in what’s happening on the show and not just how they feel about people off-screen. I think I am doing my best,” she reiterated.<\/p>\n

The reality star\u2019s biggest passion to date includes health and wellness, sports, education, and women\u2019s affairs. Recently, some of her colleagues were falling ill due to the rigours and stress of the project.<\/p>

However, asked how she has been able to keep fit, the Melanin queen said:<\/p>\n

“Odeshi dey for my black skin! (Laughs). Honestly, I\u2019d say it\u2019s the grace of God that I am doing very well. I think I am very focused on the task. I think sometimes, people fall ill because it\u2019s more of mental thing; lots of time not because something beat you or what have you, just that you are not really in a mental state to be focused on a task; and I\u2019m not allowing myself to get sick because I want to make it to the end and I want to win the house. I actually suffer from some digestive issues, but I\u2019m not complaining about it because complaining is not going to solve the issue.”<\/p>\n

Anto Lecky is a huge role model when it comes to education, obtaining her BA and dual Masters degrees in Business Management and Sports Management, she was conferred with honorary doctorate in Business Administration from ISCOM University, Benin Republic. Reacting to housemates calling her a genius, she smiled and said:<\/p>\n

“I don\u2019t know if it’s genius; that\u2019s a big word. I\u2019m very grateful that they do think that I am intelligent and smart. I do try, I can be honest, I am a bad bitch; forget I know the book well, I know that but I do think that I am actually trying my best to understand. That\u2019s the difference; some people feel like being brilliant or smart is natural. It might be natural, but I do think that if you focus and pay attention to things and you practice, you will gain the knowledge either way. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s anything that is more special. Yes, I have masters, honorary doctorate, etc., I just think in general because I am very dedicated to the course and I love to learn new things.\u201d<\/p>\n

There\u2019s no way one will take away romance from a reality show, as such CCBNAIJA can boast of the love tango between Rosie and Ruggedman. When asked what her opinion is, she laughed out loud saying: \u201cThat one is strictly just cruise, it\u2019s just cruise; they are just having a good time. You know, we are all locked up in this place, it\u2019s not as tight and confined as other reality shows, but we are away from our loved ones for days. I think everyone is just having their different kinds of fun; but I don\u2019t think it\u2019s anything serious.\u201d<\/p>\n

Though raised in New Jersey, her parents taught her about the culture and traditions of Nigeria; as such her mindset to dealing with people of different kinds of backgrounds, attitudes and skill level is felt in the show.<\/p>\n

Speaking of the funniest housemates that bring her out of her shell, she called out Josh2funny because to her, he\u2019s naturally funny and hilarious.<\/p>\n

“I think, I\u2019d say the funniest is Josh. His name is Josh2funny and he’s naturally funny and hilarious. He\u2019s not fine; he\u2019s just too natural for him. I don\u2019t think he\u2019s trying to do it on purpose or bring me out of a shell; he is just a funny guy.”<\/p>\n

Anto\u2019s final word: \u201cWinner, that\u2019s my final word,\u201d she concludes.<\/p>\n

Thursday\u2019s task was about electrical fittings and fixtures, which includes the wall brackets, switches, sockets, internal lighting fittings and wall screeding. It was fun seeing your celebrities carrying cables, rolling it and getting busy for the ultimate prize of N120 million, inclusive of a 5-Bedroom Duplex in Lekki, all-expense paid trip to Dubai, and lots more.<\/p>\n

The winner of CCBNaija can ONLY be determined by YOU, the viewer. Bear in mind that one lucky fan with the highest vote wins a 3-Bedroom Bungalow built by the celebrities. As a fan, the more votes you cast for your favourite celebrities the better your chance of winning the prize.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
