Big Brother Naija is set to return this July with its 10th season, and the organisers have announced an exciting update for fans.

At a press conference on Wednesday, they revealed that the winner of this season will walk away with an impressive ₦150 million cash prize. This is the biggest reward in the show’s history since it first aired in 2006.

Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, who has become a favourite host among viewers, will continue in his role for the upcoming season.

During the briefing, Ebuka shared some interesting milestones about the reality show. So far, BBNaija has featured 197 housemates across nine seasons, aired for a total of 709 days, and given out prizes worth ₦637 million.

The last season, tagged “No Loose Guard,” came with a unique twist where housemates auditioned in pairs and later competed as individuals. That season saw Kellyrae emerge as the winner, going home with ₦100 million and making history as the first married winner of BBNaija.
