A former Big Brother Naija housemate, Khafi Kareem, is currently being probed for misconduct at the UK’s Met Police over her appearance on the reality show in 2019.
According to the BBC, Kareem, who is a police constable at the Met Police, faced a panel on Monday, for going on the reality show “without authority”.
The reports also alleged that the former housemate and mother of one took and surrendered her laptop to organizers of the reality TV show.
Facing the panel, the Met police officer had told her superiors she wanted to appear on Big Brother Naija to “promote the Met Police” globally.
She also denied allegations of breaching standards in respect of “orders and instructions” and “discreditable conduct” and failing to declare a business interest in relation to publicity and promotion of the show.
Recall the mother of one spent 77 days in the Big Brother Naija house before she was evicted in 2019.
The hearing held at the Empress Building in west London on Monday.
Since the show, Khafi has gone on to marry a fellow housemate, Gedoni Ekpata and they have a son.
