Reality TV star Saskay has embarked on a new academic pursuit after gaining admission to the Brussels School of Governance in Belgium.
The ex Big Brother Naija housemate is pursuing a Master’s degree in Global Security and Strategy.
According to a post on her Instagram page, the development comes after she waited five years for the opportunity.
Saskay revealed that her admission and scholarship opened the door for her to continue her education abroad.
She shared that the process involved moments of doubt and challenges, but she remained determined to reach her goal.
The former BBNaija housemate explained that her loved ones, including her sisters and close friends, played a vital role in encouraging her through the waiting period and the visa application process.
She expressed gratitude for their support as she embarks on this new chapter of her life.
Saskay said that while she feels excited about returning to academic life, the transition has also been overwhelming since she has been away from international studies for some years.
Still, she described this stage as a long-awaited dream finally coming true.
She wrote, ”When the time is right, I the Lord, will make it happen” (Isiah 60:22b) and he did! I waited 5 years for this opportunity and even almost gave up last year by registering to study a random course I wasn’t half as passionate about. There were times I cried myself to sleep because I wanted more and I just wanted to go to school. But this year was the year! From gaining admission, to scholarship and the hectic visa process, it was all destined.
“I came across people I believe God sent to just assist me through it all. I remember going for Thanksgiving in church before I even got admission cause I recently learned to give thanks even before my blessings arrived. So grateful to my sisters and my friends for how much they supported me through it all.
“I’m doing a Masters in Global Security and Strategy, and babyyyy. I’ve already called my sister once crying cause I felt so overwhelmed Being out of touch with the international arena and just diving back in is one hell of a ride but I am strapped (or atleast I think I am). Anyways, I was gonna do a nonchalant post but this caption is now too long so bye guyssss!”

Big Brother Naija housemate, Mide, has declared that she has no regrets about finding love on the reality show.
Mide fell in love with fellow housemate Bright Morgan on the show despite the latter revealing to the housemates that he was in a committed relationship outside.
Following Morgan’s surprise eviction on Saturday night, Mide told Big Brother during her diary session on Sunday that she no longer has any unfinished business in the house.
She stated that she never thought she would fall in love on national TV, but her connection with Morgan was effortless.
“I never thought I would fall for someone on national TV, and it happened so naturally. I am not ashamed about it. I learnt a lot. I don’t feel like I have any unfinished business,” she expressed.
Mide previously vowed not to kiss or make love on reality show out of respect for her family, but later compromised with Bright Morgan.
She broke down in tears when Ebuka evicted Morgan shortly after the Saturday night Turnup.
Fellow housemates, Dede and Kola consoled and encouraged her to be strong, stressing that she has maximum two weeks to go out and meet Morgan and chart the way forward for their relationship.
Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemates, Isabella and Rooboy, have called out their fellow contestant, Thelma, over her conduct in the house.
Isabella expressed her opinion about Thelma during a conversation with Rooboy and Koyin on Saturday.
Isabella, who has had a series of heated arguments with Thelma in recent weeks, described her as “bitter” and accused her of constantly trolling others.
Rooboy, sharing in the sentiments, further criticized Thelma’s behavior, alleging that she tends to escalate conflicts by recruiting others to join in the drama whenever she has a disagreement with a housemate.
Isabella – “She (Thelma) is very bitter, she cannot stay without shading someone.”
Rooboy – “Very bitter, wetin you talk about her na true. If she get problem with you she go con dey go up and dey look for who go dey the same shit with her. Na bitch ass attitude be that.”
Recall that Isabella and Thelma clashed during Thursday’s pool party over sharing of alcohol.
Rooboy also had a fallout with Thelma after expressing a romantic interest in her.
However, Thelma rejected his advances, bluntly stating that Rooboy does not meet her standards for a potential partner.
Big Brother Naija Season 10 contestant, Dede, has shared insights into her outlook on relationships and her core personal values.
During a candid conversation with fellow housemate, Joanna on Friday night, shortly after the housemates concluded their weekly wager presentation, Dede revealed that she has only been in three relationships in her lifetime, which directly reflects her body count.
“I’ve been in only three relationships and that’s about my body count.
“Sometimes I just want to have fun, but I still cannot. I believe in faithfulness, I don’t play with things like that,” she said.
Dede explained that loyalty plays a significant role in her relationships, stressing that infidelity is something she cannot tolerate or recover from.
She further shared that the idea of betrayal leaves her feeling broken, often leading her to end things immediately rather than stay in a relationship clouded by mistrust.
“The moment I cheat on someone, I don’t know how to move on. I feel like something has broken, and I might just ask us to break up because I believe there’s going to be payback. That’s just how I am,” she added.
Big Brother Naija housemate Faith has revealed that he would not kiss fellow housemates Imisi and Isabella, even for a prize of 80 million Naira.
He stated this during a conversation with fellow housemates, Mide, Kulture, Jason Jae, Joanna, and Rooboy, on Sunday.
According to him, Imisi and Isabella are not at his level.
Faith: “If you give me N80 million, I will not kiss Isabella.”
Jason: “So why are you here? If you had said N1 million, I would have believed you.”
Faith: “I am here for the experience, not the money.”
Jason: “If they give you N80 million, you won’t kiss Imisi?”
Faith; “I will not…Imisi is not on my level.”
Faith and Imisi have been involved in a lot of altercations since the show started. The duo were initially close but fell out after Faith bluntly rejected Imisi’s romantic interest in him.
Isabella, who is Imisi’s close friend, appeared to have inherited the beef between the two of them.
Former Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemate Ifeyinwa Okafor, popularly known as Ivatar, has reflected on her time in the house, revealing that fans frequently misunderstood her personality because of her outward appearance.
In a recent chat with Sunday Scoop, Ivatar explained that many viewers anticipated more drama from her simply because of her tattoos and overall look.
“People have said that they expected more drama from me because of how I look, but I am naturally a very calm person. From the start, I made it clear that the stereotype people have about tattooed individuals doesn’t define me.
“I’m classy and intentional. Of course, I have a fun, crazy side, but only those I’m comfortable with will ever see that. I’m also a mother to an 18-year-old, so I can’t be reckless just to entertain anyone,” she said.
The recently evicted housemate also addressed speculations about a supposed relationship with fellow housemate Kaybobo.
She dismissed the claims as false, noting that a viral photo suggesting they kissed was digitally altered.
“I was shocked when I saw that picture. It never happened. Kaybobo and I are just friends. We connect because we share similar interests, but there is nothing romantic between us,” she clarified.
Ivatar also reflected on her strained relationship with her former close ally, Mensan, before her eviction.
She admitted that while they bonded over shared experiences, she may have handled their friendship differently.
“Maybe I shouldn’t have pulled him into my corner because I felt he was lonely, like I was. We shared some fun moments, but I believe in setting boundaries, and I’ll always stick to that,” she said.
Former Big Brother Naija star, Adekunle Olapade, has disclosed that housemates on the reality show frequently see one another n*ked.
He made the claim while reacting to controversies trailing intimate videos involving Koyin and Isabella, as well as Jason Jae and Sultana.
Adekunle insinuated that some housemates were attracted to their colleagues of the opposite sex after seeing them nude.
“A lot of people who watch Big Brother Naija reality show are very hypocritical. Secondly, there is actually nothing wrong with two people who like each deciding to get intimate.
“All the housemates see each other n*ked, in case you don’t know. So, you cannot be in a house with somebody that you see without clothes almost everyday and not be attracted to the person. It won’t work,” Adekunle stated in a podcast interview with Pulse.
Adekunle Olapade featured in the Big Brother Naija reality show during the ‘Level Up’ season in 2022 and the All Stars season in 2023.
