Pokello dumps Zimbabwe boyfriend on television

ZIMBABWEAN housemate Pokello Nare says her feelings for Ghanaian Elikem were real.

"I am feeling Elikem right now," she told show host IK on Sunday. Despite her controversial past, Pokello pulled a good show while in the house and was close to Elikem with whom she shared a kiss.

She, however, surprised viewers after announcing that she was done with her boyfriend back home.

Bassey and Pokello's evictions on Sunday meant that Zimbabwe and Sierra Leone are officially out of The Chase. Sierra Leone's Bassey and Zimbabwean Pokello became the 15th and 16th Chasemates to leave the game. Bassey was put up for possible eviction by Ethiopia's Bimp after removing his own head from the chopping block.

The exit of Zimbabwe and Sierra Leone follows shortly after Malawi, Angola and Uganda.

This means that only Kenya, Tanzania, Nigeria and Zambia still have their teams intact. Botswana, Ethiopia, Namibia and South Africa still have one Chasemate in the running for the much coveted US$300 000.

Now that Pokello has been evicted, her Ghanaian hunk Elikem is left with no partner or friend in the House and he was looking like someone has pulled the rug from under his feet, a look we were not aware he could have. Elikem finally had a legitimate relationship with Pokello only to lose her to evictions.

They were known as one of the powerful couples in the Ruby House that prayed together, next to Oneza of course, and Pokello's eviction has clearly left Elikem wallowing in sadness and holding on to memories of their time together.

In her Eviction Diary session, Pokello told Biggie that if her game came to an end, it wouldn't mean the end of his and she was right. He now needs to be an even stronger contender and try to win the US$300 000 grand prize, much like Cleo has had to do her best without Hakeem.

As much as the hook-ups in the House are part of the game, all the housemates are individual competitors first and lovers second. Maybe Pokello's eviction will motivate Elikem to be the best he can be on The Chase and hopefully stay true to his word to her.

While he was wallowing in his sorrow, a few of his fellow housemates kept coming into the room to check up on him. Dillish came in and quickly went out then Busi also came to talk to him for a bit, dressed in a top that revealed her sexy tummy.

She also left him to his thoughts. Then Annabel came to try and lift his spirits by telling him that he still has his people in the House even though he was feeling that he was in the House without Pokello's support. Hang in there Elikem.
