The much-anticipated 10th season of Big Brother Naija has officially begun, launching with the introduction of 15 dynamic female housemates who set the tone for what promises to be an exciting and high-energy season.
From the moment host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu stepped onto the stage and began introducing the housemates, it was clear—this group of women is bringing fire, confidence, and charisma. The BBNaija house buzzed with excitement as the contestants began to settle in, sparking early connections, banter, and strategic undercurrents.
Meet the Women Who Made a Grand Entrance
Each housemate brought a distinct energy. Big Soso stood out immediately, exuding self-assurance. When asked about the “Big” in her name, she responded boldly, “Everything I do is big. I don’t do small things.” Her entrance alone made a strong statement.
Doris delivered a warning wrapped in humour: “Anyone that comes for me should be ready to get paw paw!” While cryptic, her tone hinted at fiery confrontations ahead.
Focused and business-minded, Mide was clear about her intentions: “I’m here to win the money. My eyes are on the prize.” Whether she maintains that singular focus amid house drama remains to be seen.
Zita brought unapologetic flair, promising “Steeze, aura, baddie and everything!!!” Her self-assured attitude suggests she’ll be one to watch.
Perhaps the most compelling backstory came from Ivatar, who revealed this was her seventh time auditioning for Big Brother Naija. Her persistence paid off, and fans will be eager to see how she seizes this long-awaited opportunity.
Game Twists and a New Prize System
Ebuka hinted at major gameplay changes this season. Unlike previous years, the Head of House (HoH) games will now take place on Sundays, with a new HoH Challenger segment set for Mondays. More notably, the season’s grand prize will be disbursed weekly, emphasizing consistency, strategy, and weekly dominance.
This new structure means housemates must stay sharp and competitive every single week, raising the stakes significantly.
Day 1 Energy Sets the Pace
While many housemates answered Ebuka’s question—“What are you bringing to the house?”—with “I’m bringing myself,” viewers are already watching closely to see who brings more than personality. With 15 male housemates expected to join on Day 2, the dynamics are bound to shift dramatically.
If Day 1 is any indication, Season 10 of Big Brother Naija is gearing up to be intense, unpredictable, and thoroughly entertaining.
