Who knew a sweet, symbolic gifting ceremony would be the calm before the emotional storm? What started as a night of heartfelt tokens and nice tributes ended with tears of a very different kind — confusion, confrontation, and full-blown conflict.
Earlier in the evening, RooBoy had everyone swooning when he called Thelma Lawson “the most beautiful girl in the house.” Aww! But just as quickly, things started getting… complicated. Isabella, clearly trying to bring fun and flirtation to the mix, tried vibing with RooBoy — but let’s just say he wasn’t catching that pitch. He left her hanging, and the awkwardness was loud.
Misfires and Mixed Signals
Elsewhere, Gigi Jasmine was hoping for some clarity from Victory, gently probing to see if he liked her. Instead, Victory rerouted the convo back to his dreams of being in the house. Not quite the romantic response she was hoping for, and when he said “Can we go back?” it was pretty clear he wasn’t on the same wavelength.
Tears, Truths, and a Triangle
And then came unexpected drama: Isabella vs. Kayikunmi. What started as a lighthearted chat about crushes turned into tears and shocking revelations. Isabella, hoping for honesty, got more than she bargained for.
Kayikunmi admitted he was attracted to her and to Mide but claimed he didn’t want to get his heart broken. Isabella broke down, saying “You can’t be here AND there!” while accusing him of getting intimate with her and still chasing someone else. Whew!
The Gifting Ceremony: Symbolism and Sentiment
Just hours earlier, the energy in the house had been pure vibes. The gifting ceremony had housemates exchanging objects that symbolized how they saw each other — mirrors, crowns, medals, and even… snakes?
There were some truly touching moments: Mide’s tribute made RooBoy cry, Sabrina honored Gigi for her constant acts of kindness, and Mensan broke down when he likened Big Soso to his mum. It was warm, it was sincere, and it felt like a turning point for the house.
From Calm to Chaos: KayBobo vs. Mensan
But Biggie’s house is never predictable. Post-gifting, tensions bubbled over again. KayBobo and Mensan locked horns in a heated verbal brawl. KayBobo, visibly emotional, accused Mensan of painting him as a bully. Mensan clapped back, fuming that KayBobo crossed a line by mentioning his mum.
The energy got so intense that Biggie had to call Kola into the Diary Room, likely to help calm the situation.
Mide Steps Back
Later that night, Mide had a heart-to-heart with Kayikunmi, telling him she would take a step back to let him figure things out. She admitted she felt like she was coming between whatever was going on between him and Isabella.
Unmasking and Unraveling
What started as a feel-good, teary-eyed bonding night quickly morphed into a web of tears, truth bombs, misread signals, and emotional landmines. As the housemates continue to reveal more of themselves — unmasking, if you will — it’s clear that vulnerability in this house doesn’t always come wrapped in a pretty bow.
One Thing’s for Sure…
Biggie’s house is not for the faint of heart.
