The grand finale of �I�m Love With Bomaye�, a reality show on Multi TV will take place on Sunday, August 19, at the Mensvic Grand Hotel at 6:00p.m. The final event which has four maidens to compete for the crown, would witness performances from some selected music icons including Cee and Bradez. The show dubbed, �I�m in love with Bomaye�, is a well carved reality show centred around Big Brother star Alex Biney aka Bomaye�s quest to find a wife, a true African queen, apart from winning Alex�s heart, the winner would also take home the ultimate prize of US$20,000. Twelve well groomed women were selected to woo and win the heart of Alex over a period of 13 weeks under 24-hour camera surveillance in the house. The twelve ladies include Gifty, Jay, Lovely, Miss G, Princy, Favour, Promzy, Harriet, Becky, Sylvia, Chichi and Blay, and the man of the show, Alex �Bomaye� Biney. Alex Biney, as he is known in real life, has nominated some of the maidens for eviction at one point in the show even though, he has laughed and danced with them. He harboured no secrets and due to that, his audience knew what he thought about each of the last four � Princy, Promzy, Chichi and Favour. Unfortunately, there were votes involved in this matter and as if that was not enough to take power out of the King�s hands, there was also the issue of the maidens also making a choice. We know from their conversations that they have all had some experience with at least one man in their lives and perhaps knew exactly what they wanted too. If Alex has been studying them for three months, perhaps they have also been studying him too. Does he have flaws too that some of the maidens do not like? One may ask. Another intriguing question is whether he is just a pretty face or he has values they, the maidens, have come to respect. Is he the perfect guy? In fact, the bigger social question is, do men choose women or do women choose men?
