BBNaija Day 17: Playful game turns into frank talk

Biggie’s house exploded with jaw-dropping fiery hidden confessions, and surprising new friendships among housemates.

What started as a casual question-and-answer game as the housemates passed time before this evening’s task kicked off, quickly turned into one of the juiciest nights yet in Biggie’s house. With the housemates gathered in the lounge, the mood shifted from playful banter to eyebrow raising revelations, and no one was safe from the heat.

The rules were simple: answer honestly, no dodging. But as the questions started rolling in, they took a very personal turn. “Who do you have a crush on in the house?” “Who’s your biggest sexual attraction?” “Who would you kiss right now if you could?” the kind of questions that make tensions rise.

One of the most eyebrow-raising moments came when Victory was asked about Gigi Jasmine and his recent interest in Sultana. Victory clarified his position, stating that he’s never told Gigi Jasmine he loves her. “I liked her when we first walked into the house”. He further proceeded to mention Gigi Jasmine “isn’t his spec”, and when he was prompted to discuss Sultana, the conversation was shut down and moved along swiftly to the next housemate.

Doris asked Sultana about her part in the Gigi Jasmine and Victory situation. Sultana told the group that Gigi Jasmine is her friend, and Victory is her guy and there was nothing going on. Later, Sultana reassured Gigi Jasmine during a one-on-one in the bedroom. She told her nothing is going on between her and Victory, further explaining that Doris had asked the question to clear the air and let everyone know the truth. “She said I owe her. She wanted everyone to hear the truth from my mouth,” Sultana said.

After the game, Denari pulled Gigi Jasmine aside and told her to stop sharing a bed with Victory and to keep her distance, pointing out that Victory had made his feelings clear. Since then, Gigi Jasmine’s mood has been noticeably low and she’s been quiet, withdrawn, and visibly emotional.

Just when the house thought the drama had peaked, another bombshell dropped. Victory revealed that Jason Jae and Kola had made a bet on Dede. The revelation left the entire house stunned, with whispers and shocked expressions rippling through. Kola appeared surprised by what he was hearing, while Jason Jae didn’t deny it. Dede shook her head in disbelief at the news, having already friendzoned both Kola and Jason Jae.

Meanwhile, an unexpected friendship blossomed between Dede and Joanna this evening. The two were seen laughing and bonding, joking about not taking the guys in the house too seriously. Their playful camaraderie brought a fresh energy and the viewers were here for it.

To cap off an already explosive game, one of the final questions put Rooboy on the spot: who does he like in the house? Without hesitation, he boldly said Thelma Lawson, confirming the growing connection between them. Rooboy has been openly vocal about his attraction to her, and this public admission may have just added fuel to the fire.

When Rooboy asked Mide if she had any personal issues with him after she told him, “You over sabi too much,” Mide set the record straight, saying she had no problem with him, and that he would know without a shadow of a doubt if she did.

Ivatar, on the other hand, was asked who she is interested in getting to know better in the house apart from Mensan. Without batting an eyelash, Ivatar mentioned Kaybobo’s name.

As secrets come to light and new bonds form, the energy in Biggie’s house is electric and unpredictable. With alliances shifting and emotions running high, one can only expect the unexpected in Biggie’s house.

BBNaija 10: Sultana Banned From Drinking Alcohol For 1 Week

Big Brother has issued a ban to housemate, Sultana.
This is as Biggie also meted out punishments to several other housemates for violating house rules.
Biggie issued the disciplinary actions on Tuesday for a meeting.
Kulture received a final warning for openly displaying violent behavior.
Big brother banned Sultana from consuming alcohol for one week, including the upcoming Saturday night party.
This punishment stems from her urinating in Dede’s cloth box, a behavior deemed unacceptable by Big Brother.
“Sultana alcohol is not an acceptable excuse. In your drunken state you almost damaged Big Brother’s floor and the property of your fellow housemate. You are hereby banned from consuming alcohol for one week including the parties,” Biggie said.
Biggie also issued a double strike to Bright Morgan for his misconduct towards Faith.
 
“For your conduct, you are hereby issued a double strike, one more strike and you will be disqualified from Big Brother’s house. Do you understand?” Big Brother declared.
Bright Morgan responded, “Yes biggie.”

BBNaija 10: Thelma Emerges Head Of House For Week 2

Thelma Lawson has emerged the interim Head of House for the second week in the ongoing Big Brother Naija Season 10.

The announcement came after a competitive HoH game that took place shortly after the live show.

Big Brother invited all the housemates to the arena, where they were grouped by gender and given a water-filling challenge.

Thelma emerged as the top female performer, while Jason Jae won in the male category.

The two winners faced off in a final round, which involved carefully placing eggs on a deck using only a spoon.

Thelma completed the task faster than Jason, earning her the Head of House title.

She later picked Kayikunmi to join her in the HoH lounge.

However, her victory comes with a condition.

A new twist in the game means that Thelma must defend her title in a special challenge on Monday.

If another housemate performs better, she could lose the position.

BBNaija Season 10 began on July 28 with a two-day launch.

The winner of this season will walk away with a cash prize of N150 million, the highest reward since the reality show began in 2006.

In other news, all 29 housemates in the Big Brother Naija Season 10 show were thrown into celebration mood on Sunday evening after learning that no one would be evicted in the first week.

626Blaze reports that the twist was revealed during the first Sunday Live Show by host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, who informed the contestants that they would all remain in the house for now.

The housemates, who had been tense throughout the week, immediately relaxed and hugged each other in joy.
