Sultana emerged as interim Head of House after a three-stage HoH challenge held shortly after Sunday’s live eviction show. Mensan and Sultana advanced to the final two stages before Sultana clinched the win.
Big Brother introduced a twist requiring Sultana to defend her title in a special HoH challenger match on Monday, meaning she could lose the position if another housemate outperforms her. Joanna was named house snail for the week after finishing with the worst performance in the HoH challenge.
Following a lost wager, the lounge was locked, and housemates were barred from sitting on chairs, sleeping on beds, or using a pillow or blender. Wooden stools replaced chairs, mats replaced beds, and a mortar and pestle were provided instead of a blender.
BBNaija season 10 opened with a two-day unveiling of housemates on July 26 and July 27, bringing a total of 29 contestants. The winner will take home N150 million, the largest grand prize in the show’s history since its 2006 debut.
Danboskid and Ibifubara were the first evictees on August 10, followed by Otega and Kayinkunmi the next week. Sabrina exited on medical grounds while Victory and Gigi Jasmine were evicted on August 24, and the house awaits further unpredictable twists in coming days.
