The Big Brother Naija All-stars Season Reality Television Show came to a thrilling conclusion on Sunday, with Ilebaye Odiniya emerging as the winner. This victory has not only brought joy to fans across the country but has also earned the admiration and congratulations of Kogi State Governor, Alhaji Yahaya Bello.
In a statement released in Lokoja by his Media Aide, Onogwu Mohammed, Governor Bello commended Ilebaye for her exceptional performance throughout the show, emphasizing her brilliance, perseverance, and humility.
The Governor hailed Ilebaye, a criminology graduate of Salem University, Lokoja, as a true trendsetter and a source of pride for the people of Kogi State.
“I am delighted to congratulate one of our very own from Kogi, Ilebaye Odiniya, on her remarkable achievement as the winner of the Big Brother Naija All Stars Season reality television show,” said Governor Bello.
“Ilebaye, you are a trailblazer and an embodiment of Kogi’s excellence, excelling in both your academic and social pursuits.”
He added, “This victory is a testament to your brilliance, intellect, and maturity. Your determination, resilience, and poise set you apart during the three months you spent in the house.”
Ilebaye secured an impressive 30.8% of the total votes, surpassing her closest rival, Mercy Eke, who garnered 23.48% of the votes.
Her triumph has stunned many, considering she was evicted in just three weeks during her season, “Level Up” in 2022, and was considered an underdog in the All-Stars season.
