We have seen and witnessed seasons of the Big Brother Naija with housemates that have wowed us with the level of Intelligent Quotient. It is agreed that not everyone is intelligent but the few on this list are definitely of the scholars’ world.1. Bisola Aiyeola (Bisola)This multi-talented personality that graced the second season of the Big Brother Naija show is in no doubt an embodiment of vast knowledge. Her experience of both the sweet and bitter parts of life really built a tutor that could school you on real-life situations. Bisola is an actress, Television presenter and singer.2. Omololu Shomuyiwa (Lolu)This guy was literally referred to as the encyclopedia of the Double Wahala edition of the show. His conversations were always seasoned with wisdom as you are sure to learn something new from him every time he speaks. Outside the House, Omololu worked in the corporate world of banking and media.3. Tobi Bakre (Tobi)Tobi, who is currently ruling the world in the movie industry and across, was a goal-getter in the House. Before he got into the Season 3 show of BBNaija, he worked as a banker and showcased his level of intelligence while on the show.4. Madu Jackye (Jackye)Jackye featured in Season 4, Pepper Dem.

Olamilekan Agbelese (Laycon)The intellect of the Housemate who is nicknamed Laycon in the ongoing Lockdown edition is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with by the knowledgeable.
