Is it that time to start preparing for the welcome party of Morris? The odds are against the Ugandan and he is most likely to be evicted come Sunday.
Yes, only a miracle could save him. However much Morris finds solace (and hope) in his Bible reading, the reality is bleak for the Ugandan. He is up against Thami, and the only other female remaining in the house Hazel, and his chances of survival are as slim as our roads not having potholes!
For those Ugandans who are addicted to the show, their nightmare scenario has always been "Morris is up for eviction", for deep down they knew Morris couldn't cut it, if he was nominated. He lacks the love (or sympathy) by the voting African viewer.
But this is Big Brother, a reality show known for its unpredictably, and the absurd- there is no formula when it comes to Big Brother, Ask Lucille, Uti or even last year's winner Richard. So anything is possible, even Morris going on to survive, and win the money...Okay that's too hoping too hard, even for a diehard Morris fan, but the point is Morris can still survive.
Come this Sunday, most of us will have our fingers crossed, praying for some kind of miracle. And if you are the kind who rarely talks with the one above, it would be kind of you to open up a dialogue with him, asking him to forgive your numerous sins, but also help Morris stay for at least one more week - is that asking for too much?
