Kolapo Omotosho, the Big Brother Naija Season 10 finalist, has clarified his relationship with the show’s winner, Opeyemi Ayanwale, popularly known as Imisi, stating that their connection is purely platonic.
Speaking with journalists after the prize presentation at MultiChoice headquarters in Lagos, Kola said Imisi was “just my sister” and someone he deeply cared about in a non-romantic way.
“Imisi is just my sister, and someone I care about in a platonic way. I’m happy that someone I care about the most in the house won. Her win is my win,” he said.
“I knew she cared about me because she always looked out for me. Even when we were not in the same team, she always made sure I was okay. She’s my sister and will continue to be my sister,” he added.
Kola, who described himself as “true to myself,” noted that while he initially desired to win, he was content seeing someone close to him clinch the N150 million grand prize.
“I always thought I wanted to win, but at the end of the day, I was open to my sister, Imisi. She rooted for me. I’m grateful I have a sister,” he said.
He, however, declined to discuss his relationship with another housemate, Dede, saying, “I don’t want to talk about my relationship with Dede.”
The reality star also spoke about his biggest personal challenge during the show, revealing, “My challenge is not talking to my parents.”
Meanwhile, the winner, Imisi, also described Kola in glowing terms, confirming that their connection was purely brother-sister.
“Yes, he’s like a brother to me. Nothing beyond that,” Imisi said.

Nigerian singer Iyanya Onoyom Mbuk, popularly known as Iyanya, has urged fans to show more empathy toward celebrities, noting that fame does not shield them from emotional challenges.
In a post shared on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday, the Your Waist crooner reflected on the pressures of fame, describing the life of a celebrity as “a double-edged sword.”
“We need to understand that celebs are humans with deep feelings and struggles like everyone else.
“Beyond the media glamorisation of their lives and personalities is a human simply asking and wishing and yearning to be human like the rest of us. It is a double-edged sword,”Iyanya wrote.
He further noted that male celebrities, in particular, often face even greater internal struggles due to societal expectations that discourage vulnerability.
“For male celebrities, perhaps there may be an even deeper level of struggle to come back up when one has hit a low — because men are wired to be stoic, not show vulnerability, not ask for help or they’d be considered weak,” he added.

Controversial Nigerian singer Portable has described his relationship with his fourth baby mama, actress Ashabi Simple, as the biggest mistake of his life.
Portable made this statement in a leaked audio conversation with the actress.
The singer in the audio shared on his Instagram page on Saturday, accused Ashabi of attempting to chase away all the women in his life including his house wife.
While questioning the Ashabi motive, Portable stated “You didn’t suffer with me. You only came into my life because of my glory. I made you. Without my name who knows you before now?”
In the messy altercation, “You molested and disrespected me in public. You are evil. Any woman I want to call my wife must respect me, but you are driving me crazy.
“I’m always happy whenever people talk about my wife, Bawaji. She’s also happy about it. You are the mistake I made in my life.
“Among all my baby mamas, you are the one chasing people away including Queen Dami. When she came to apologise, you and your friends spoiled it. You are a useless human being.
“Why do you want to chase all women away from me? It was God who didn’t let my wife, Bewaji leave my house. You told her that I had girlfriends.
“You poor girl and actress, What have you ever bought for your parents? You’re wasting your time I can’t love you. Leave my life. You this ingrate. Who knows you? before I come into your life and raise you up”.
Ever since Ashabi became Portable’s baby mama, the singer had severally called out, dragged and publicly insulted Ashabi over an attempt to compete with his wife.
But they continue to settle their fights and stick together.
