Day 56 began with the aftermath of Saturday night still hanging over the house.
While some housemates focused on cleaning, packing and getting ready for the day, Oyin was still upset about her confrontation with Bluethopia. What started as Flora trying to calm things down quickly became another tense exchange before the pair eventually returned to talking and laughing.
Here’s how the day is unfolding.
8:00 am: The house wakes up to eviction Sunday
Biggie’s morning music roused the housemates as cleaning got underway.
HoH Barry was busy tidying the lounge. Chimsom Chuka and Yusuf walked in the lounge, chatting. Keivo also came downstairs carrying his suitcase from the Loft and met Ricky at the foot of the stairs.
Ricky asked if Keivo had been awake during the chaos between Oyin and Bluethopia the previous night. The pair laughed before Keivo continued upstairs.
Around the house, some housemates were packing, others were making their beds, while several were freshening up and getting ready for the day.
In the kitchen, Bluethopia told Barry she was feeling sick. Barry asked if she needed any medication, but she declined. He then said that she was probably dealing with a hangover.
9:00 am: Oyin and Flora clash over Bluethopia
Big Brother announced that the salon was open, and Bells and Yusuf headed in, with Bells washing Yusuf’s hair.
Flora and Oyin later joined the salon, where Oyin brought up her fight with Bluethopia from the night before.
Oyin maintained that Bluethopia should simply have called her to come and collect her clothes. She questioned why anyone would throw another person’s clothes on the floor and put them inside a bucket.
Flora repeatedly tried to calm her down, but Oyin remained upset. She pointed out that Chimsom Chuka and Sheba also had wet clothes on the dryer, yet Bluethopia had focused on hers.
As Flora continued advising her to calm down, Oyin turned on her, calling her two faced and telling her not to give advice she would not take herself.
Oyin then vowed that nobody would use the clothes dryer again.
When Yusuf entered the salon, she continued venting, insisting that people needed to handle other people’s belongings properly.
10:00 am: Oyin and Flora cool off
Temi Nkem helped Sheba curl her hair while Chimsom Chuka playfully gave Sheba a shoulder massage.
In the house, the earlier tension between Oyin and Flora appeared to have eased.
The pair sat together on the kitchen couch, talking and laughing, although Oyin was still not completely done with the clothes dryer issue.
She mentioned that she would fling any clothes she found on the hanger.
Flora laughed and reminded her that there were only two weeks left in the house, urging her to calm down.
11:00 am: Yusuf and Bells discuss the morning drama
Bells and Yusuf sat together on the couch in the games lounge, with Yusuf teasing her about the shape of her head and calling her “hammer head.”
Their attention eventually shifted to Flora and Oyin, whose laughter could be heard from the kitchen.
They reflected on the earlier exchange between the two women, with Yusuf commenting on how calmly Flora had handled Oyin during the disagreement.
12:00 pm: Exit diary sessions begin
Sheba admitted she was nervous and, after some prodding from Biggie, rated her chances of surviving eviction at 80/100. She said she believes in herself, has faith and feels she has given her best. Her highlights were the Wonderland wager and Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, especially hearing Tram’s words about her. If this is her last diary session, she said she is grateful and would leave with her head held high.
Ricky said he feels he is not going anywhere, having faced possible eviction since Week 1. His highlights were enjoying the week, drinking at the party and getting closer to Sheba. He thanked Biggie for the experience, then once again asked for a better photo if he ends up on the picture wall. Biggie reminded him the current picture reflects who he is.
Bells rated her survival chances 5/10, saying if it is her time, it is her time. Her highlight was seeing the nominated housemates return on Sunday and deciding not to go back and forth with them. She also told Biggie she takes back everything she previously said about Yusuf.
Chimsom Chuka said he had a good week and felt less fatigued. His highlights included Barry’s Ultimate Veto decision, his disagreement with Bluethopia and the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, where Sheba’s speech about him stood out. He rated his chances 50/50, saying he is prepared to go and ready to stay.
Bluethopia said she woke up upset over her fight with Oyin and explained her side of what happened. She named the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party and Saturday Night Link Up as her highlights and rated her survival chances 5/10, saying she would lie on the floor in gratitude if she stays.
Yusuf, sporting a new hair colour, said he has finally overcome the usual Sunday tension. He rated his chances 6/10, calling the game unpredictable. Winning the wager was his biggest highlight because he had encouraged the house to simply enjoy the process. If this is his last diary session, Yusuf said he is grateful for the opportunity and revealed that he has taken a liking to a certain housemate.
1:00 pm: Exit diary sessions continue as Biggie orders nominated housemates to pack
Biggie first ordered the housemates to leave the salon immediately.
Temi Nkem named the arena games and Pool Party as her highlights, telling Biggie that at least the Oyin and Bluethopia fight had nothing to do with her. She rated her survival chances 5/10, saying she did not do much this week. When reflecting on a possible final diary session, she revisited being called a bully and said someone in the house often picks on her in ways she feels are misunderstood. Biggie asked her to be specific and she mentions Oyin’s name. Biggie challenged her with a few accountability questions.
Keivo said his highlight was winning the arena games. He rated his survival chances at 80%, saying he remains optimistic despite not knowing the stakes. He also thanked Biggie for being a wonderful host.
Oyin admitted she was tense and said she does not enjoy Sundays. She rated her chances at 10%, leaving the rest to fate and God’s grace. If this is her last diary session, she said she is grateful for the opportunity and thanked Biggie for being like a guardian.
Tram said he feels blessed and is gradually feeling like himself again. His highlight was the Gordon’s Task, where he was pleased to see an idea he contributed help his team win. He said he would not be embarrassed to leave and has simply been going with the flow. He thanked Biggie for the experience.
Flora said she was nervous and really wants to stay until the end. Her highlights included Thursday and Saturday, especially the housemates cooking and eating together, letting go of some beef and her team winning a task. She became emotional while thanking Biggie, saying the experience helped her become more confident. Biggie jokingly reminded her that she also learnt how to take items from fellow housemates during her Gambit missions, making her laugh.
After Flora’s diary session, Biggie instructed all nominated housemates to pack their luggage.
2:00 pm: Packing, gist and BB Bucks plans
The closet area is busy as housemates pack ahead of the eviction show.
Ricky and Sheba are cosy on a bean bag, while Bluethopia sits nearby unbraiding Chimsom Chuka’s hair as they all chat. Tram tells the group that if he survives tonight’s eviction, he plans to start spending his BB Bucks next week.
