Revelations with finalists reached its peak as they gathered for their final dinner, with Ebuka.
Ebuka began the evening with a surprise for the housemates: a retrospective of their journeys in the house. Each finalist with the rest of the house watched their journey and reflected on their experiences, sharing their thoughts and revealing the stories behind the moments that had defined the season.
Dede: Pride and guarded moments
Dede’s journey was shown first. She described her time in the house as fulfilling, noting that she gave her best, savoured every second, and felt genuinely happy to be there. When asked if she felt guarded, she admitted that she did, acknowledging the challenges of navigating relationships and strategy within the house.
Imisi: Chaos, four personalities, and confidence
Next came Imisi, whose journey had the house laughing at her unpredictable antics. She said she enjoyed her time and rated herself a perfect 10 out of 10. Ebuka remarked on the speculation around her strategy, noting that she didn’t appear in the house as she did in her photos. Imisi explained that she has four personalities, three of which the housemates had already encountered, and that she allows people to perceive her as they wish.
Isabella: Performer through and through
Isabella’s journey prompted laughter and some squeals as she saw everyone she had kissed during the season. The housemates noted that her kiss with Kola was not shown. Ebuka highlighted a statement Isabella made about being in the house to “put on a show,” asking how much of her behaviour was genuine and how much was performance. Isabella explained that when Biggie asked them to unmask themselves, she was unsure what to write, but she knew one thing: she belongs on television as an entertainer and performer. She rated herself 10 out of 10.
Jason Jae: Friendships tested
Jason Jae’s journey brought tension to the dinner table. Ebuka reflected on the dynamics between Jason Jae, Dede, Joanna, and Sultana. Jason Jae explained that he entered the house trying to create a safe space for himself. He emphasised that his connection with Dede was purely friendship, and he retracted certain actions after the “fish incident.”
Kola challenged Jason Jae, suggesting that his interactions with Dede went beyond friendship. Jason responded directly, criticising Kola for talking behind his back and insisting that anything said about him should be addressed face-to-face. Dede supported Jason, bringing the discussion to a firm close.
Koyin: Romantic yet serious
Koyin’s highlights prompted questions about the kiss with Sultana. Koyin revealed that it began as a playful game; Sultana had asked if he wanted a relationship in the house, teasing him, and Isabella had dared him to kiss her. He said he has been close to Isabella and has got to know her better.
Mensan: Emotional yet unapologetic
Mensan’s journey underscored his emotional depth and resilience. He explained that being raised by a strong, emotional woman shaped his character, and he remained indifferent to the opinions of others. Reflecting on a live show confrontation with Ivatar, Mensan noted that he sought to repair their friendship after the incident. He also clarified that he never had feelings for Ivatar and has a girlfriend outside the house.
Kaybobo: Platonic bonds and romantic considerations
Kaybobo’s journey raised eyebrows over his interactions with various housemates. He clarified that his relationship with Isabella was entirely platonic and that Thelma Lawson was one of the few people he found attractive. He added that Dede was the number one girl in the house, but he refrained from pursuing her after she mentioned she had a partner outside.
Kola: His connection with Dede
Kola’s journey featured numerous moments with Dede, and during the final supper, he shared his reflections with Ebuka. He described Dede as the sweetest person in the house and said he admired her style. Kola admitted that it was difficult to give up on pursuing her, explaining that seeing her every day made it impossible to resist.
Sultana: Romance with Jason Jae
During Sultana’s journey, Ebuka asked her if she had considered anyone else before Jason Jae, to which she replied that she had hardly found anyone else attractive. When questioned about what drew her to Jason Jae, Sultana initially declined to comment. Ebuka clarified that he was not asking about her feelings, but what had captured her interest, and she responded that it was his persona and she said he seemed like a nice and determined guy.
On whether she had ever wondered about Jason Jae’s relationship outside the house, Sultana stated that she did not, emphasising that she prefers to live in the moment.
After watching the journey’s, Ebuka reminded the finalists that they all gave 110 per cent during the season, making it a challenge for viewers to decide who to vote for each week.
The last supper with Ebuka was a mixture of it all. It was a final chance for housemates to share their thoughts before the finale. From revelations about relationships and strategies to personal reflections on their journeys, the evening captured the essence of Big Brother Naija Season 10: intense, emotional, and unforgettable.
