Imisi Adewale has been crowned the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 10, defeating fellow finalist Dede in a dramatic finale that gripped millions of viewers across Nigeria and beyond. The fan-favorite contestant, celebrated for her authenticity, warmth, and sharp humour throughout the season, walked away with the N80 million grand prize, cementing her place among Africa’s biggest reality TV stars.
The season, which began with 29 housemates, concluded in a glittering live show hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, marked by suspense, cheers, and emotional moments. As Ebuka announced Imisi’s victory, the studio erupted in jubilation while fans across the country flooded social media with congratulatory messages and hashtags celebrating her triumph.
Earlier in the finale, Kaybobo, Isabella, Mensan, Jason Jae, Sultana, Kola, and Koyin were evicted, setting the stage for the final showdown between Imisi and Dede. In the end, Imisi’s blend of humour, emotional intelligence, and genuine character won the hearts of fans who kept her in the game through weeks of intense competition and unpredictable twists.
With this victory, Imisi joins the exclusive list of Big Brother Naija champions, succeeding KellyRae, the winner of the Season 9 “No Loose Guard” edition. She also becomes the fourth female winner in the history of the franchise, a milestone that further underscores the growing influence of women in Nigeria’s entertainment scene.
Season 10, which featured several new formats and surprise deductions in prize money, was widely regarded as one of the most competitive editions yet. Viewers praised Imisi’s steady authenticity and resilience, qualities that helped her navigate the complex social dynamics of the house and connect deeply with fans across all demographics.
Her win not only crowns weeks of strategy, laughter, and endurance but also reinforces Big Brother Naija’s reputation as a launchpad for new stars — a cultural phenomenon where everyday Nigerians become household names overnight through charisma, creativity, and connection.
