The Big Brother Africa auditions are on

Earlier in the year, Sunday World reported that the 9th season of Big Brother Africa will not happen.

But lo and behold the reality TV show will start on television on Sunday 7 September on DStv  and run for 91 days.

Contestants need to be 21 and older and must have a valid passport.

People in 14 countries can enter, although Angola is dropped and has been replaced by Rwanda.

"The inclusion of Rwanda in this season is even more exciting as this displays that our reach and growth into the various sub-Saharan markets is going from strength to strength," says Nico Meyer, MultiChoice Africa CEO.

"We look forward to seeing further growth as well as the impressive social media presence that the show enjoys".
