A controversy has emerged following the conclusion of Big Brother Naija Season 10, with the Senior Special Assistant on Media to the Delta State Governor, Mr. Ossai Ovie Success, alleging that the show’s organizers manipulated the outcome. The accusation came after Imisi was announced as the winner of the reality show during the live finale on Sunday, October 5, 2025.
According to Mr. Success, Dede, who finished as the first runner-up, was unfairly denied the top spot. He claimed that the show’s producers intentionally prevented another contestant from Delta State from emerging as the winner, citing Kellyrae’s victory in the previous season as a possible reason. Mr. Success stated that he believes Dede deserved to win, not because of her state of origin, but due to her performance throughout the show.
Imisi, the declared winner, took home the grand prize of N150 million after 10 weeks of competition. The show’s outcome has sparked a reaction from Mr. Success, who expressed his disappointment and intention to take legal action against the organizers. He alleged that the voting process was rigged, which led to Dede being awarded the second position instead of the top spot.
Big Brother Naija Season 10 commenced with a diverse group of contestants competing for the grand prize. The show’s finale was watched by a large audience, with many taking to social media to express their opinions on the outcome. The allegations of manipulation have added a new layer of controversy to the show, with some viewers calling for transparency in the voting process.
As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how the organizers of Big Brother Naija will respond to the allegations. The show’s producers have not yet commented on the matter, leaving many to speculate about the validity of the claims. The controversy surrounding the show’s outcome serves as a reminder of the importance of fairness and transparency in reality television competitions.
