As we know, there are eight finalists battling for the grand prize of N100 million, but the reality show only needs one winner, and who will that be?
This ninth season of Big Brother Naija, tagged ‘No Loose Guard’, kicked off in grand style on Sunday, August with 28 housemates, competing in pairs. They brought their A-game for 71 intense days.
With weekly twists, tasks, and evictions, the house has been full of drama, keeping viewers glued to their screens as one by one, housemates were voted out either as a duo or individual after they were split.
