The organisers of House of ABK Film Reality TV Show has given out a car and N10m worth of deals to Chizzy Paschaline, winner of the House of ABK Film Reality TV Show Season 1.

The show was organised to give Nigerian youths opportunity to develop their talents for employment, job creation and self-reliant. It will also helps to reduce unemployment rate in our society especially among the youths.

At the presentation, the organiser and the Managing Director/CEO, ABK Supper Market, Mr Olatoye-Kayode told media men in Lagos that major essence of this programme is to help young Nigerians to develop their talents, showcase it and become great people in the society. “That was why we really prepared ourselves for this programme and spent about N10m to package the show. To ensure good feeding for the contestants, accommodation, camera and other things needed to ensure that the programme achieved desired results.

When asked about the future of the show, Kayode said, “We are not stopping at this first season, any time soon, we are launching season 2, reason being that we have many youths that are talented but don’t have opportunity to showcase their talents. As the show continues I believe we will be able to discover more youths that are talented and this programme will help them groom their talents and help them go far in their career”.

According him, “I advise them to believe in themselves, because anybody can be great in life no matter your family background, no matter how poor you are, you can become somebody”.

On the challenges during the programme he said, “There is nothing that comes easily in life. There we had challenges, but with the help of God, we were able to overcome it”.

In addition, winner of the show, Chizzy Paschaline, is an actress from Enugu state told the media that she came about the programme online and she applied, and she contacted to participate.

Narrating her experience during the show, Paschaline said, “We spent 20 days in the house, and the experience was fun to me. It worths displaying and educating as well. I met new friends, people of different background.

First, it was a beat difficult since you have to learn how to cope with your housemates. “But along the line, I got use to it. The time I didn’t enjoy was the eviction period. It was very emotional. It took a whole lot to control myself because you don’t know everybody’s capability despite the fact that I’m doing my best and my management is doing their best in pushing me forward, voting for me. Then at the same, it was all emotional seeing those you made friends leaving the house, it was full of emotion”.

On what really stood her out, Chizzy said, “beside the voting, I’m a very good actress. I tried my best possible to bring in the best in every task given to us. Then the votes which is the most important thing in the competition.

So, I tried as much as possible to work with my team, my management to see that they keep topping my votes in each of the sections. Of course this is not my first time of participating Reality TV show. I had some level of confidence because I was already developing myself before I came for this show, and as a winner I will continue to improve myself.”

Continue she said, “I will use my prizes to explore. I also want to thank the organisers of this show for given me a platform to showcase myself to the world, and learn more things about acting which I didn’t know before this competition”.

Also, camp commandant, Ibru Festus, known as MC Bullet Comedian, lent his voice to say that the show was fun, and contestants enjoyed themselves. “Most of the training was on movie, and they were trained for 15 days on those things they needed when it comes to acting. As a camp commandant, it was not easy for me training young people from different backgrounds, different characters who came to stay in a house. Sometimes they contradicted the rules of the game, but I had to bear with them, seeing them as friends who came to learn.

On what qualifies one to be a winner, Festus said, “intelligent, vibrant, but the most important is the highest vote”.

Contributing, Manager, ABK Bar/Lounge, Prince Bob, said, “We are here to present the winner of House of ABK Film Reality TV Show the prizes of car and N10m worth of deals.

Bob said that the programme was to elevate young talented Nigerians that are interested in the movie industry. “Basically, ABK has decided to give back to the society through this platform to encourage talents”.
