BBNaija S10: Tears, Twists, and Two Goodbyes on an Emotional Sunday Night

Sunday night in the Big Brother Naija Season 10 house was anything but ordinary. What began as another live eviction show quickly became a rollercoaster of emotions, from surprise exits to heartfelt confessions, and a sombre tribute that reminded everyone that life outside the house is still very real.

The night kicked off with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu stirring the pot, as only he can. He turned to Thelma for her thoughts on Isabella, and Thelma didn’t hold back, hinting that Isabella wasn’t exactly her “brother’s keeper,” a subtle jab linked to the drama from the last Head of House challenge.

Before the tension could fully settle, Biggie took a moment to applaud the housemates for their solid wager task performance and general energy over the week. The praise didn’t stop there, Rooboy was crowned “Most Influential Housemate of the Week,” with the promise of a reward to be unveiled in real time.

Then came the evictions. First out was Danboskid, who got an emotional send-off, including a warm hug from his close ally, Zita, and a house-wide “three gbosa” chant in his honour. On stage with Ebuka, Danboskid admitted the eviction felt unreal but accepted it as part of the game. He cleared up a past comment about women, explaining he rarely approaches them unless there’s something special, and yes, he thinks Zita is stunning. He left the stage with dreams of Nollywood and keeping things going with Zita beyond the walls of Biggie’s house.

Next up, Ibifubara’s journey came to an end. The 28-year-old opened up about feeling lonely during the week, caught in shifting friendship dynamics. A therapist by profession, Ibifubara now plans to channel her energy into launching a podcast and taking a hair brand’s creative direction to new heights.

Denari narrowly dodged the axe, landing in the bottom three but surviving to play another week, as revealed by the post-show voting chart.

In the night’s most sobering moment, Ebuka announced the passing of Ayotunde Elegbede, a valued member of the BBNaija production crew. The housemates and viewers alike paused to honour his memory, as Big Brother confirmed that his family had shared the news with the show’s organisers.

It was a night of mixed emotions, celebration for those who stayed, sadness for those who left, and a heartfelt reminder of the fragility of life. In true BBNaija fashion, the drama, dreams, and human moments keep unfolding, and the game goes on.
