Big Brother Naija season 5 star, Ozomena Joseph Chukwu better known as Ozo, has stated that competing in the reality TV show in 2020 was his greatest blessing.
The sports analyst claimed that it gave him a chance to demonstrate his extensive expertise about sporting activities and tournaments.
The Juventus Nigeria brand manager told The Punch in a recent interview that landing lucrative sports-related jobs was a major victory for him.
Ozo said; “The biggest blessing I have was the year I was on the show. There was a betting company that was one of the major sponsors (of the show then). Every Friday, there were sports trivia games, and that gave me a great opportunity to show I had so much knowledge and interest in sports.
There were questions ranging from football, basketball, tennis, golf, Formula One, boxing, and Ultimate Fighting Championship. My fellow housemates then used to clamour for me to be on their teams. That was big for me.”
When asked if he would be interested in working in entertainment, Ozo responded that he was happy in the sports world because the two are related.
He also disclosed that he is a minority shareholder in a business that intends to produce a game show for football fans.
He said;
“Sports and entertainment are intertwined. I am never bored, and that is because there is always a sports event for me to watch. There is always a form of entertainment for what I do.
For example, I am (an analyst) on a football show where we talk about things that happen around the English premier league. There is a company where I am a minority owner, and we are about to start our own show and quiz people on different football matters. Also, we give people the best idea of how they should set up their fantasy teams.”
