Ex-BBNaija All Stars Soma ventures into acting

Former Big Brother Naija All Stars contestant, Somadina ‘Soma’ Anyama, is expanding his horizons by venturing into acting.

He shared his excitement on Thursday, October 5, via his social media handle, announcing that he has been granted an official chance to showcase his acting talent.

The reality TV star turned singer expressed his gratitude for the opportunity, mentioning that he was presently on set for his inaugural acting role.

The 31-year-old tweeted: “On set for my first movie gig post the show… gratitude.”

Soma’s initial taste of fame turned bitter as he lasted only two weeks during his first appearance on the BBNaija show in 2017, largely due to ‘failed tactics’ of playing it too safe.

He and Miyonse were the first evictees from the See Gobbe edition of Season 2, which saw Michael ‘Efe’ Ejeba emerge as the winner.

Six years later, he seized a second opportunity to enter the show alongside 23 other former housemates in the All Stars Season 8 edition, competing for N120 million and enticing prizes.

This time, driven by the desire for the prize money rather than romance, he missed out on the former but found a connection with Angel, despite it not being part of his initial game plan.
