BBNaija ex housemate Khafi Kareem is currently facing a misconduct hearing at the Metropolitan (MET) Police London for her participation in the 2019 edition of the reality show.
The Met said she went on the reality show programme “without authority”.
PC Kareem asked for an unpaid leave in 2019 to appear on the show which according to her was “a chance to promote the Met on an international basis”, the panel was told.
However, line managers felt it was not within the best interests of the officer of the force.
Anne Studd Oc, for the Met Police said, “Having seen the UK episodes of the show, concerns were raised. But, PC Kareem said Naija was not like the UK version, she saw it as a chance to promote the Met on an international basis.

Looking at the website and information provided, Ch Supt Gwillim concluded it was not in the best interests of the Met or the officer and it would put her in a compromising situation. He explained the rationale and stressed she was not to take part in the show. Gwillim’s impression was that PC Kareem was disappointed but understood. She took the period of unpaid leave”.
Although permission for the leave was granted she was told not to take part in any further auditions, interviews, or shows”, the hearing was told.
Upon leaving the show in 2019, Khafi got engaged to fellow housemate Gedoni Ekpata. The lovebirds got married in 2020, and welcomed their first child a son in August 2021.
