The day started a bit gloomy following HoH Neche's decision to voluntarily exit the Show Ya Sef house. However, following their morning workout, housemates kickstarted their day bonding and preparing for the Week 4 wager task presentation.
08:00 am: The day begins
After a vigorous workout session, housemates immediately went on to clean up the house. Sheba advised the house to put their heads together and get the cleaning done, given they're currently without a leader.
09:00 am: Temi Nkem and Barry bond
While the housemates had breakfast, Temi Nkem and Barry chatted while eating. Temi Nkem opened up about how her situation with Keivo is triggering for her, and Barry tried to find out what made her decide to turn on him, but Temi Nkem insisted he made that decision, not her. The duo also spoke about Neche's exit, with Temi Nkem offering a hug and an outlet to vent for Barry due to their closeness.
10:00 am: Araga gets advised
Ebuka's words to Araga — "I feel like I see you, but I don't see you" — were what their conversation revolved around. Sheba felt it could be a threat or prompt from Ebuka, pushing Araga to get his head into the game and truly showcase himself, as the potential is there. Araga agreed and stated that after much thought, he believes he needs to do more in the house.
11:00 am: Wager prep begins
For Week 4: The Creative Chaos Week, housemates were split into two teams via a lucky dip and tasked with creating an art showcase. Sheba and her teammates: Yusuf, Flora, Aikou, Barry, Keivo, Ricky, Abi, Araga, and Oyin began discussing their wager task plans. Members of the other group, notably Chimsom Chuka, Bells, Gerard, Cassi, Sultex, Nomy, Bluethopia, Goddessa, Tram, and Temi Nkem, also gathered to get their wager task prep up and running.
12:00 pm: Keivo chats about Temi Nkem
Keivo told Abi that while Temi Nkem can engage him in conversation, he won't reciprocate the same energy with her, insisting he doesn't play when it comes to respect, and Temi Nkem seems to have a problem with that, accusing him of making everything about respect. He also recalled turning down a cuddle from her, saying he couldn't engage in such since he doesn't know her that well.
Abi told Keivo he's a traditional man, to which he responded that he prefers building things — pointing to how he'd taught Temi Nkem to make custard and iron her clothes, framing it as his way of showing care through action. He explained he stopped doing more for her after hearing that Temi Nkem and her friends were saying he should be making her breakfast in bed, adding that he doesn't entertain third-party opinions and sees her recent behaviour as a game, noting she was previously preoccupied with Gerard before the Tram situation. He brought up a moment where, after telling her he liked her, she went on to kiss Tram and gave him no real explanation when questioned.
Abi recalled that on the day in question, Temi Nkem and Tram were seen giggling under the blanket together. She also pointed out that Tram has been a disruptive presence in the house's relationships, having previously been involved with both Goddessa and Bells. She admitted to being frustrated, having hoped Temi and Keivo would work out.
1:00 pm: Prep for HoH games begin
Following an announcement from Biggie, housemates began getting ready for yet another Head of House game. In usual fashion, Oyin and Flora had a gisting session where they dissected housemates and their behaviour. Tram and Ricky also touched on the house's current energy, stating that Neche's absence is felt, as there's been a major energy shift.
2:00 pm: Yusuf and Bells spend time together
While in the bedroom, Yusuf and Bells shared cuddles and chatted about the house's reaction to Kamsy's eviction, Neche's exit, and the upcoming HoH games. Yusuf encouraged Bells to make sure she participates.
3:00 pm: Sheba and Goddessa gist
In the garden, Sheba spoke to Aikou about adapting quickly to house life, as Aikou brought up fighting the urge not to sleep during the day. Aikou pointed to her active lifestyle as the reason for her steady energy, which Sheba agreed with. She also opened up about her career as a radio host, sharing ambitions to expand into TV, weddings, awards, and film hosting, while revealing her number one passion is actually farming.
Goddessa and Barry also spent a lot of time together; their conversation carried a flirtatious undertone as they chatted about a wide range of topics, from her romantic life outside the house to house events.
4:00 pm – The HoH Challenge starts
The housemates move to the Arena for their HoH Challenge games. Nomy arrived late in the Arena. Biggie greeted the housemates and explained the Colour Wheel game to them. In the first round, a group of four people each have to look at an image and recreate a colour wheel with the pieces provided to them.
When it was Nomy's turn to compete, she was told by Biggie she will not compete because she was late for the HoH Challenge.
5:00 pm – The challenge is on
Temi Nkem, Bluethopia, Chimsom Chuka, Tram, Gerard, Abi, Yusuf, Aikou, Oyin and Ricky made it to the next round.
6:00 pm – Abi and Chimsom Chuka battle it out
In the semi-final round, Abi, Ricky, Tram and Chimsom Chuka competed and the game involved each of them had to complete a puzzle and paint it. Ricky stopped for a while and it had looked like he had given up. By the end of the game, he told Biggie that something was wrong with his stand. Biggie told him “better luck next time”.
Abi and Chimsom Chuka made it to the final round.
