There have been rumours that one of the commercial banks in Nigeria, Heritage Bank Plc facilitated the entry of Tobi Bakre into the Big Brother Naija house.
It would be recalled that Heritage Bank Plc is one of the sponsors of the show at least for about two seasons now. Before his entry into the house, Tobi worked at the bank thereby swelling rumours that his entry was influenced.
The young man dispelled the rumours during an interview with Beat FM Lagos when he was quizzed about the issue.
"People in my office knew at the last minute when I had to resign. Nobody knew about it and I was particularly quiet about it. I only informed them when I wanted to resign" he explained.
He maintained that he was scared his links with Heritage Bank could have jeopardized his chances of being part of the reality show which he found uneasy to also disclose at the Big Brother Naija audition.
