Conversations in Biggie’s house always seem to touch on love, relationships, and everything in between. This time, it was Big Soso steering the conversation as she asked Rooboy what he looks for in a woman, and what qualities he hopes to find in a wife.

Rooboy admitted that he hasn’t mapped out every last detail about marriage yet, but he was clear about a few key traits. He said he’s drawn to a confident woman who knows what she wants in life. 

Opening up further, Rooboy revealed that he’s very emotional, and that’s why he finds qualities like self-assurance and inner strength attractive, even pointing to Thelma Lawson as someone whose character resonates with him. 

He said at the end of the day, He wants a woman who allows him to be himself. He added that, as a man, he doesn’t just want to work hard, but that he also wants to be "babied" and to be able to come down to her level.

When Big Soso pressed further, asking about his preferences, Rooboy didn’t shy away. He confessed to having a soft spot for older women, particularly those between 35 and 40 years old, while noting that he is currently 30 years old. He also mentioned being drawn to taller women, like Thelma Lawson.

On the subject of marriage, Rooboy surprised everyone with his sense of urgency. If he were to meet the right woman now, he wouldn’t waste time. He said it wouldn’t take more than a year because he wants to wrap it up. Zita and Tracy, who were partially part of the conversation, were visibly shocked by how quickly he was willing to settle down, exchanging glances.

Meanwhile emotions ran high between Kola and Dede. Kola admitted to Dede that he had messed up, acknowledging that he wasn’t thinking when he kissed Isabella and that his actions hurt their connection. Dede, clearly upset, reminded him that they had both agreed on certain boundaries and questioned what he had really expected.

Kola asked if there was any way forward, insisting that he thought they had been fine before things went wrong. Dede wasn’t convinced, she said firmly, making it clear that he had to take responsibility. 

She explained that everything unfolded in less than five minutes. Dede described herself as a pessimist who often anticipates the worst-case scenario, but despite her frustration, she also stated she didn’t entirely fault Kola for what happened. Still, the tension between them was evident.

From Rooboy’s heartfelt vision of love to Kola and Dede’s emotional confrontation, the house continues to prove that relationships, whether blossoming or breaking down remain at the heart of the Big Brother Naija experience.
