August 20, 2010 – Ghana’s Sammi is officially out of the Big Brother game.

He was forced to leave the Big Brother All Stars Barn on Friday morning after being diagnosed with extensive hypertension.

“I thank Africa. I thank everyone else; being here has got me to break my fear of being around other people. I thank you very much!” were his words as he bade farewell.

Sammi was attended to by two doctors this morning after complaining of a constant headache that even prevented him from performing the task yesterday.

The Ghanaian has been quite emotional since the game began and was the first occupant of the barn, alongside Uganda’s Hannington.

During his diary session today, Sammi said he was having trouble sleeping.

Big Brother then told Sammi about the doctors’ decision that he should leave and get bed rest.

Sammi was given two hours to leave and bid his barnmates farewell.

‘Tatiana gave Sammi a heartfelt hug. Lerato said “that really sucks”. Hannington joked with Sammi and said that he’s leaving him with two girls, and Sammi giggled.’
