Confectionery Company Hosts BBNaija Former Housemates

Former housemates of the reality TV show, Big Brother Nigeria (BBNaija), were recently hosted in a meet-and-greet session by a Lagos-based confectionery firm, Infusion Cakes & Cafe.

Founder and chief executive of Infusion Cakes & Cafe, Mrs. Ibigbeye Okobi said the company decided to host the BBNaija ex-housemates because “We really enjoyed the free spirit they exhibited, how natural they were and how they were able to get Nigerians to actually get engaged in everything they did while in the house.”

Okobi said the management of Infusion Cakes & Cafe also felt that the location of the company in the highbrow Lekki area of Lagos would serve as an excellent platform for Nigerians who were keen to meet the ex-housemates, get to know and interact with them in a friendly and hospitable environment to really appreciate them.
