If he won USD 100 000, Tanzanian housemate Richard says he’d spend it buying film equipment. The 24-year-old film student is passionate about making movies and considers filmmaker Peter Jackson is his personal inspiration. The only married contestant on Big Brother Africa 2, Richard would love to visit his wife’s hometown of Brandon in Manitoba, Canada to see “where and how see grew up”.

Describing himself as a very entertaining person, the housemate says that he doesn’t embarrass easily and that his bad habit is that he is very loud in the morning, before any one else is fully awake. He plans to win Big Brother Africa 2 without losing his integrity and self respect. A lover of the natural beauty of East Africa, he says that his favourite memory is driving through the Ngorogoro Crater watching the different wildlife. He also says that the best places to visit in Tanzania are the Serengeti National Park and the coastal areas, especially Zanzibar.
