Big Brother Naija housemates, Thelma Lawson and Bright Morgan, have been evicted from the reality show in a surprise Saturday night eviction.
Their exit was announced shortly after the Saturday night party, during host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu’s visit to the house.
Thelma became the first to exit the house during the night, followed by Bright, who was also shown the door after the weekly party.
The unexpected double eviction marked the first Saturday night eviction of the season, leaving viewers and fellow contestants stunned.
Addressing the housemates after the eviction, Ebuka reminded them of the stakes in the competition and the need for them to be at their best, a message that immediately set the tone for the night’s dramatic turn of events.
Evictions are typically held on Sundays, but Big Brother occasionally alters the format to surprise both housemates and viewers.
Saturday night evictions, though rare, have historically intensified competition and shifted the dynamics in the house.
With Thelma and Bright’s exit, the number of housemates battling for the top prize has been further reduced, raising the stakes for the coming two weeks.
Big Brother Naija, now in its season 10 edition, is one of Africa’s biggest reality TV shows, drawing millions of viewers across Nigeria and beyond.
The show, which features contestants living together in an isolated house while competing for a grand prize, often introduces twists such as surprise evictions to heighten the drama and keep fans engaged.
