Imisi, the champion of the Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) Ten Over Ten season, has officially received her winnings.
The 23-year-old winner, whose real name is Opeyemi Ayanwale, was presented with a cash prize of N80 million and a brand-new Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) at a ceremony on Tuesday.
Her victory, secured by polling the highest votes during Sunday’s finale, cements her place in the show’s history.
Not only did she claim the largest grand prize ever offered — a staggering N150 million — but she also became the fourth female winner, following in the footsteps of Mercy Eke (2019), Phyna (2022), and Ilebaye (2023).
The prize presentation marked the culmination of a whirlwind season that began with a two-day opening ceremony in July.
The show introduced 29 housemates in total, starting with the females on July 26 and the males on July 27.
After weeks of competition, the finale featured nine finalists: Imisi, Koyin, Dede, Mensan, Sultana, Jason Jae, Kola, Kaybobo, and Isabella.
The final rankings saw Kaybobo and Isabella finish in ninth and eighth place, respectively. Mensan and Jason Jae placed seventh and sixth, while Kola finished in fifth.
Sultana was named the third runner-up, leaving Koyin and Dede as the second and first runners-up, respectively, before Imisi was crowned the ultimate winner.
In addition to the headline cash and car, Imisi also received various other prizes from the show’s sponsors.
