#BBNaijaS10: Biggie crowns Zita new HOH, just a day after Doris’ reign

Big Brother Naija Season 10 has delivered another major twist as housemate Zita emerged as the new Head of House (HOH), just 24 hours after Doris was crowned.

The surprise move came during Monday’s HOH challenge, where Zita outperformed fellow contenders Ivatar, Denari, Isabella, and Doris to clinch the coveted position.

Following her victory, Biggie made the official announcement:
“Housemates, your new Head of House is Zita. Kindly select your house guest.”

As HOH, Zita now enjoys immunity from nominations, exclusive access to the HOH lounge, and the authority to shape house dynamics for the week. She also has the deputy privilege, giving her added influence over strategies and alliances in the House.

The twist, which saw Doris dethroned barely a day into her reign, is one of the unpredictable game-changers Big Brother has promised this season, keeping fans and housemates on edge.

“A single mother cannot raise a man” – Jim Iyke

Veteran Nollywood actor, Jim Iyke explains why he believes that a single mother cannot raise a male child into a man.

He stated this during a recent interview with Okay 101.7 FM, Accra, Ghana.

According to him, a woman isn’t built with the necessities to raise a boy into a man.

He said …

“A woman can’t raise a man. You can’t, you’re not built for it. A single mother cannot raise a man properly. You need a male influence – go get your brother that’s doing well or your father or even any man that you trust. There has to be a male presence in it [raising a boy child].

“Because women are naturally built to nurture, to love. And then what you’re going to raise is a very weak man? He is going to be everything like the men that left you. You need somebody that would discipline him, tell him ‘No’ as often times as possible, and put him in the grind”

2025 DNA report shows 25% of Nigerian men not biological fathers

A new report from Smart DNA, Nigeria’s leading DNA testing centre, has revealed that one in every four Nigerian men who undergo paternity testing is not the biological father of the child in question.

The findings are contained in the company’s 2025 Annual DNA Testing Report, which covers July 2024 to June 2025. While the figure marks a slight drop from 27% in 2024 to 25% in 2025, experts say the persistently high rate of paternity exclusion shows a growing but largely unspoken social crisis in Nigeria.

“These findings are not just about science; they speak volumes about trust, relationships, and the economic and emotional realities of Nigerian families today,” said Elizabeth Digia, Operations Manager at Smart DNA Nigeria.

Analysts suggest that these patterns may be linked to early romantic relationships, pre-marital pregnancies, or social strategies around partner selection. The trend also raises sensitive questions about how paternity is initially assumed and socially accepted in Nigeria, particularly in a culture where male lineage is strongly tied to legacy, inheritance, and the continuity of family names.

Man discovers brand new iPhone bought in Lagos flagged as stolen in UK

A Nigerian living in the United Kingdom, Gbenga Wemimo, has shared a shocking experience after discovering that a brand-new iPhone his wife purchased in Nigeria turned out to be a reported stolen device in the UK.

Taking to the social media platform X, Wemimo revealed that he had bought the iPhone last September for his wife at an Apple-authorised store located in Jakande, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos.

According to him, the decision to purchase the device in Nigeria rather than abroad was his way of supporting local businesses.

How we almost landed in trouble over ‘stolen iPhone’

“My wife bought a brand new iPhone at the Apple store located at Jakande, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos last September. We decided to trade it in for a new one today at the Apple Store located at Westfield Stratford City Arcade (London) a few minutes ago Only God did not let them call the police on us.

The attendant scanned the IPhone and declared that it had been reported as stolen. Stolen from where? It was not a used iPhone It was new, purchased from an approved Apple Store and we have all the receipts intact.

The attendant saw our indignation and went ahead to consult with her superiors. They scanned again and they declared that it was reported “missing”. They adjusted their language from stolen to missing and told us it has zero swap value.

I was not shocked at all even though I should be. Nigerians like cutting corners for unhealthy gains and they always believe this is good business for them as long as they were able to make a buck. Somehow we were able to walk out of that Apple Store without any drama but I remember telling my wife that we would have had a lot of explaining to do if they had a policy that required that they must report such incidents to the police.

Nigerian business people must try to do better than this There is something called integrity, it has a higher value than the dirty gains they think they are getting by playing dirty. I have always insisted on buying things in Nigeria because it helps the economy but I can see the reason many prefer to shop abroad. We must do better than this as a people. -GSW-“

Nobody wants to marry me because I am a single mother of two – Kaffy

Prominent Nigerian dancer, Kaffy laments the challenges she faces in her personal life following her divorce.

Speaking candidly during a recent discussion, the 45-year-old entertainer disclosed that many men shy away from marrying her because she is a single mother of two.

She criticized the societal stigma attached to divorced women, questioning why people assume a woman with children is less desirable, even though statistics show that many marriages end in separation.

Kaffy further argued that divorced individuals who have worked on themselves may, in fact, be better partners than unmarried people.

She highlighted that over 70% of marriages eventually fail, stressing that real love should bring peace and security rather than anxiety.

Her words …

“I’ve had somebody tell me because I’m a single mother, I can’t even think about dating me because I have two children.

99% of the people that criticize me about my marriage are either not married today or have left their marriages. What makes you think that a woman that has been divorced is not even the better candidate If she has worked on herself, what is the guarantee that the two single people today are not both going to be divorced people tomorrow?

Because why are people feeling like, I need to marry him fresh and I need to marry her fresh. But both of you are going into the same data that the world has computed for you. There are over 70% of marriages crashed. You are part of the 70%. There’s just so many stuff. Do you know that a lot of butterfly in the tummy is a trauma response? Real love brings peace, not butterflies. Real love is not supposed to make you anxious. You shouldn’t be with… I can imagine Daddy Freeze now, as he’s here now, and he’s thinking about what taste buds is doing in the house. He’s at peace. I’m still healing from those anxious feelings because of the moment I feel like I killed this I’m like, why would you do this to me? I’m 45, but I’ve spent the last 10 years of my adult life trying to fix it. My children were looking at us and I’m like, go. If you have to leave. Oh, really? Oh, yeah. You think I’m irresponsible?

I know how responsible I am as a woman. I don’t sleep around. I don’t do casual stuff. I heard even the, after I used him, his youth, after I used him to collect children, my IVF champion, because I don’t understand…”

“My reputation is gone, how will I get married?” – Ibom Air passenger Comfort Emmanson laments over viral video

Viral Ibom Air passenger, Comfort Emmanson, has expressed sadness over the humiliation she suffered and the toll it has taken on her life, saying that her life and future have been shattered.

The lady, who trended online after a video captured her clashing with an Ibom Air hostess, said the incident left her traumatized, ashamed, and stripped of her dignity.

According to her, the clash began after she was brusquely told to switch off her phone.

Upon landing, she said she stepped into the restroom, only to return and find that all other passengers had disembarked, leaving her alone with the hostess, who allegedly prevented her from exiting.

Comfort Emmanson further claimed the hostess pulled off her wig, damaged her phone and necklace, and in the process exposed her, sparking the altercation that was recorded on video.

What followed, she said, was even more devastating, as people now reportedly turned her humiliating naked image into WhatsApp stickers.

The heartbroken lady further stated that the viral video had caused lasting damage to her reputation and career.

In her words:

“I am ash@med to go out because everyone has seen my body. They even used it as WhatsApp sticker. I am into real estate, I don’t know how to talk to customers knowing that my body is out there. How will I get married? My unborn kids will see this. My reputati0n is gone. I am not a troublemaker. I am still rounding up my treatment from the hospital.”

Otega, Kayikunmi Evicted From BBNaija Season 10

Two more housemates have exited Big Brother Naija Season 10, as Oghenetega “Otega” Eritomi and Oluwakayikunmi “Kayikunmi” Ajibade became the third and fourth contestants to be evicted from the reality show.

Their eviction was announced during Sunday’s live show, hosted by media personality Ebuka Obi-Uchendu.

The eviction votes were tight. Ifeyinwa “Ivatar” Okafor secured 1.36%, edging out Kayikunmi with 1.26% and Otega with 1.22%.

The vote count and ranking of housemates were independently computed by Deloitte and confirmed against the results determined by M-Net.

In another highlight of the week, Jason Jae was officially voted the Most Influential Player of the Week by his fellow housemates.

Otega and Kayikunmi’s departure follows the earlier exits of Ibifubara and Danboskid, while Sabrina withdrew last week due to medical reasons.

With their eviction, the race for the ₦150 million grand prize has tightened, reducing the line-up from 29 contestants at launch to 24.

Otega, a 32-year-old chef, photographer, and developer from Delta State, joined the show to challenge himself in a new environment and connect with people through creativity and authenticity. Reflecting on his life, he had described his career switch from tech to food as his proudest moment.

Kayikunmi, a 25-year-old banker from Ekiti State, came into the house with a bold declaration that he was in it for the money, fame, and entertainment. Known for his loud personality, he described himself as someone who loves love but struggles to find the right partner.

The banker’s energy and his much-talked-about fling with Isabella weren’t enough to secure his stay in the game.

During the live eviction, Ebuka urged the remaining housemates to stay focused on their journey and reminded them that the stakes are only getting higher.

Season 10, which premiered in late July with one of the largest casts in the show’s history, has already seen its fair share of drama.

This past week (week 3), Biggie’s disciplinary hand was felt strongly: Kuture received a final warning, Sultana was barred from alcohol for a week, and Bright Morgan bagged a double strike for repeated infractions.

With 24 housemates now left in the running, the coming week looms large for fresh twists and new alliances.

EPL: Cunha, Mbeumo shine but defensive woes hand Man United first defeat vs Arsenal

Arsenal opened their Premier League account with a 1-0 win at Old Trafford, punishing Manchester United’s defensive frailties from a set piece.

The decisive moment came in the first half when Declan Rice delivered a corner that United goalkeeper Altay Bayindir failed to claim under pressure from William Saliba.

Riccardo Calafiori reacted quickest to nod the ball over the line, handing Mikel Arteta’s side the lead.

New signings Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha impressed on debut, with Cunha striking the post and testing goalkeeper David Raya, but the finishing touch remained elusive.

Benjamin Sesko’s introduction after the break also failed to alter the outcome.

Arsenal, who struggled for attacking fluency, relied on their defensive organisation and depth from the bench to protect the lead.

Viktor Gyökeres and Martin Zubimendi endured difficult debuts, while substitutes Kai Havertz and Noni Madueke were introduced to steady the performance in the second half.
