BBNaija's Kola tells dog owners: 'I don't want to be friends with your pet'

Former Big Brother Naija housemate Kola has made it clear he does not want to interact with people’s dogs when he visits them. In a video shared on social media on September 30, 2026, he said, "I don't want to be friends with your animal. I don't want to be friends with your dog," and urged dog owners to stop insisting that their pets are harmless.

His comment matters because many Nigerians keep dogs as pets or guard animals, and visitors often assume it’s fine to let the dog roam freely. Kola’s stance highlights that personal comfort with animals varies, and expecting everyone to be friendly with pets can create awkward or uncomfortable situations, especially in informal gatherings.

If you own a dog and plan to host guests—whether friends, colleagues, or public figures—consider asking beforehand whether they are comfortable around animals. Respecting such preferences can prevent embarrassment and ensure everyone feels welcome. For those who share Kola’s sentiment, it’s okay to politely decline pet interactions and explain your boundaries without feeling pressured to conform.
