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.
Biggie has revealed the punishment Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemate, Kola will serve for breaking one of the show’s core rules on confidentiality.
The 10 finalists in the Big Brother Naija Season 10, tagged 10/10 have been unveiled.
This followed the eviction of three housemates over the weekend.
The finalists are Kola, Imisi, Isabella, Sultana, Jason Jae, Mensan, Koyin, Kaybobo, Dede, and Faith.
Big Brother Naija 10/10 housemate, Kola, has chosen to ease up on his pursuit of fellow housemate, Dede.
Despite her explanation, Kola has been pushing for a relationship with her and even questioned how closeness with other male housemates, Jason Jae and Koyin.
On Tuesday, Kola spoke to several housemates after his diary session with Biggie and therapy with Ibifubara, complaining that Dede was playing with his feelings.
During a conversation with Sabrina, Kola said he has realised that his situation with Dede was beginning to look like that of 2020 Lockdown housemates, Ozo and Nengi, and he doesn’t want that.
He vowed to take a step back from Dede, stressing that he hopes his team change the narrative of his situation with her from being like Ozo’s with Nengi.
Sabrina: You are the only one dedicated to her [Dede].
Kola: “She is giving mixed signals.”
Sabrina: “Only God knows the conversations she has with Koyin and Jason Jae.”
Kola: “I hope my team change the narrative of this Ozo and Nengi thing, I will do same when I come out.”
It would be recalled that during Big Brother Naija Lockdown Season, Ozo expressed romantic interest in Nengi, but she maintained a friendship with him, emphasising her relationship outside the house.
Despite her stance, Nengi’s behavior sometimes suggested she enjoyed Ozo’s attention and affection.
The situation lead to some viewers mocking and labelling Ozo “a simp.”
