The male housemates of Big Brother Naija Season 10 were revealed on Sunday night, bringing the much-anticipated double premiere weekend to a close and setting the stage for what may be the most exciting season yet.
It wasn’t just about the people who lived there; it was a spectacle. Shoday, an Afrobeats singer, lit up the stage with his hits “Caution” and “Hey Jago.” Singer Taves also sang “Folake” and “CWT” in a soulful way, getting the crowd excited before the big male reveal.
Ebuka Obi-Uchendu consistently captivates the audience with his unique style. First, he wore a newspaper-printed suit in honour of Cameroonian-Nigerian music legend Prince Nico Mbarga. Then, he changed into a regal look inspired by former Finance Minister Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh, complete with a George wrapper, coral beads, and a straw hat.
During the live program, presenter Ebuka unveiled a new group of 14 male roommates. This came after the revealing of 15 female candidates on Saturday. The announcement brought the total number of inmates in Biggie’s home to 29.
Each new roommate added their personality, ambition, and flavour to the reality show game, creating an instantly heated dynamic in Biggie’s home, all in quest to win the ₦150 million grand prize.
