UPDATE: Chichi wins HoH Game, Qualifies for the Finale, Saves Daniella and Phyna

Chichi won the week 9 head of house game on Monday, September 19, 2022. With this victory, she won herself an automatic ticket to the grand finale of the 10-week-long reality show.

Announcing her as the last HoH for BBNaija season 7, Biggie said other housemates would have pitch to sell themselves for Chichi to use her veto power to save and pick two of them for the privilege to automatically qualify for the finale.

They have 90 seconds to pitch Chichi. Others would experience the last nomination for this year.

Chichi Saves Daniella and Phyna

After the end of the pitch, Chichi saved two fellow housemates; Daniella and Phyna from nomination for possible eviction as the show rolled into the pre-final stage.

With Chichi’s veto power, Daniella and Phyna have joined the new HoH for the grand finale.

Allysn, Dotun evicted from BBNaija

After the three house guests: Chomsy, Eloswag, and Doyin were asked to leave the BBNaija house on Sunday, September 18, 2022, Allysn and Dotun have been evicted.

Phyna wins HoH

Phyna emerged Head of House for week 8, Monday, September 12, 2022, after a keenly contested game.

She defeated Seggz, Daniella, and Adekunle in the second round of the game to emerge victorious. She picked Groovy as her roommate.

With her victory, Phyna becomes the first housemate from the former Level 2 house to emerge as HOH.

Doyin, Eloswag, Chomsy Evicted from BBNaija

Doyin, Eloswag, and Chomsy on Sunday, September 11 were evicted from the big brother’s house. Rachel and Bryann were saved.

BBNaija Introduces Level 3 House

Meanwhile, Ebuka has announced another twist to the tv reality show with the announcement of a level 3 house whereby evicted housemates would be kept till September 18, 2022.

The evicted housemates no longer have a chance to win the grand prize, but they would be guests in the house till September 18.

“Big Brother has decided to retain the Evicted Housemates from tonight’s Live Show as Guests in the #BBNaija House until the 18th of September. They will now be referred to as Level 3 Guests.“

@BBNaija

Doyin, Eloswag, and Chomsy are now guests in level 3 house

Hermes returns as HoH

Hermes has become the second housemate to return as Head of House twice since the competition began a few weeks ago. The first person to become HoH twice is Eloswag.

The Challenge for the HoH game took place in two rounds. The first round involved a fishing game through which four of them made it to the second round at which Hermes emerged victorious over the others. Hermes defeated Chichi, Chomzy, and Eloswag to wear the HoH crown the second time.

House hit by triple eviction

For the first time since season 7 of the reality BBNaija started, three housemates were evicted on Sunday, September 4.

Deji, Diana, and Giddyfia were evicted from the show. So far, there have been 11 evictions and one disqualification.

Dotun Emerges HoH, As Amaka Is Evicted

Dotun has emerged as the new HoH following the Head of House game which was held on Monday, August 29, 2022. He automatically gained immunity from eviction.

He chose Daniella who has been emotionally attached to him since Khalid was evicted from the level-up house. Sheggz and Allysn are the two tails of the house this week.

Meanwhile, Amaka has been evicted from the big brother house a few minutes after the HoH game was concluded.

Everyone, including fellow housemates, was shocked by her eviction. Usually, eviction takes place on Sunday. The reason for her eviction was speculative. Could it be one of the dramas of the tv reality show?

Eviction Nomination Section by Housemates Returns

The usual eviction nomination by housemates has returned, following the merger of level 1 and level 2. Each of the housemates has the privilege to nominate two fellow housemates for possible eviction on Sunday, August 38, 2022.

This is how the nominations went:

Nominator	Nominations	Nominator	Nominations
Diana	1) Chichi 2) Sheggz	Groovy	1) Adekunle 2) Doyin
Racheal	1) Doyin 2) Sheggz	Daniella	1) Chichi 2) Hermes
Chichi	1) Allysyn 2) Adekunle	Amaka	1) Adekunle 2) Chichi
Bryann	1) Chichi 2) Adekunke	Phyna	1) Adekunle 2) Hermes
Doyin	1) Hermes 2) Racheal	Allysyn	1) Chichi 2) Racheal
Eloswag	1) Doyin 2) Amaka	Adekunle	1) Sheggz 2) Bella
Bella	1) Hermes 2) Amaka	Hermes	1) Chichi 2) Doyin
Sheggz	1) Adekunle 2) Racheal	Gidifia	1) Doyin 2) Chichi
Deji	1) Diana 2) Doyin	Modella	1) Hermes 2) Amaka
Chizzy	1) Sheggz 2) Bella	Dotun	1) Adekunle 2) Racheal

Chomsy, the new head of house nominated 1) Gidifia, and 2) Amaka

However, there is a twist. Biggie nullified the nominations of all the housemates (except Chomsy and Eloswag) for their ‘sluggishness’ when they’re called for their nomination section.

Biggie, therefore, announced that all the housemates (HMs) are up for possible eviction except for the HoH and her companion.

Breaking: Chomsy wins HoH game

Chomsy has won the Head of House game which was held on Monday, August 22, 2022. She becomes the first female to become HoH in Season 7 of Big Brother Naija.

It’s the first HoH game after both houses (level and level 2 houses) were merged. The outgoing HoH Eloswag handed over the baton of leadership to Chomsy.

When Chomsy was asked to pick a deputy HoH, went for Eloswag. Both of them will be immune from possible eviction.

Chomsy will also gain access to the Head of House room, the first person to use the HoH room in season 7 of the reality TV show.

Kess, Pharmsavi evicted from BBNaija evicted

Kess and Pharmsavi have been evicted from Big Brother Naija on day 29 of the reality TV show on Sunday, August 21, 2022, thereby becoming the 5th and 6th housemates to be evicted.

The host of the show Ebuka Obi-Uchendu announced their eviction based on the percentage of votes they received from their fans.

Earlier in the week, Eloswag from Level 1 became the Head of House and he was given the power to nominate housemates from Level 1 for possible eviction.

Groovy, Amaka, Daniella, Modella, and Chizzy survived the eviction, however, Chizzy and Modella were not real housemates and were not meant to be evicted.

Biggie to merge Level 1 and Level 2

In another update, the host also announced on Sunday night that Level 1 and Level 2 housemates will be merged.

Update: Biggie swaps Deji and Groovy

Biggie made an unexpected announcement Friday night as he directed Deji and Groovy to swap level. Groovy a member of Level 2 was directed to move to Level 1 while Deji was instructed to move to Level 1.

The announcement was made after the wager presentation, announced that Groovy should move to level 1 house.

The emotional Phyna, who was already getting closer to Groovy, couldn’t hold back her tears after the announcement.

Phyna got closer to Groovy after Beauty was shown the red card from the house.

Again, Eloswag wins HoH game

The pioneer Head of House in season 7 BBnaija Eloswag has once again emerged as the HoH, meaning the members of level 1 are retaining the title for the fourth time.

Week 4 nominees for possible eviction

As expected, the HoH has nominated some members of the level 2 housemates for possible evictions. They are:

1. Chizzy
2. Kess
3. Daniella
4. Pharmsavi
5. Modella
6. Groovy
7. Amaka

Note: Chizzy is safe because he is a rider while Modella is safe because she is a fake housemate.

Eviction for Week 3: Ilebaye, Khalid evicted

Ilebaye and Khalid have been evicted from BBNaija S7 out of the five housemates that were nominated last week. Groovy, Phyna, and Bryann survived eviction.

When Khalid was asked about his relationship with Daniella, he said, “it’s serious”.

Adekunle Emerges week 3 Head of House

Adekunle, a level 1 housemate, has won the week 3 Head of House game. After the first round, Pharmsavi, Khalid, and Adekunle made it to the second round. At the end of the game, Adekunle had 25 points while Khalid and Pharmsavi had 23 points each.

The week 3 game makes Adekunle become the 3rd HoH from Level 1 after Eloswag won the first week game and Hermes won the second week HoH game.

The housemates were instructed by Biggie to swap, level 1 moved to level 2 house

Nominees for week three possible evictions are:

1. Bryaan
2. Groovy
3. Ilebaye
4. Khalid
5. Phyna

Prize: NGN100 million (NGN50 million cash; NGN50 million worth of other prizes)

Beauty Becomes First BBNaija S7 to Be Disqualified

Beauty on Sunday, August 7, 2022, received a double strike for throwing an object toward Groovy at the Saturday Night Party, thus breaking Biggie’s rule of physical violence. Hence the reason why she was disqualified.

She got physical with Ilebaye last week, with the Saturday night violence, and received another strike from Biggie leading to her disqualification, becoming the first person in season 7 to be eliminated.

Amaka said alcohol consumption might be the reason for Beauty’s behaviour at the Saturday Night Party and subsequent Eviction.

Sunday (August 7) night Highlights

Beauty has been disqualified for getting physical with fellow housemates

Two more new housemates Racheal and Chizzy were ushered into BBNaija on Sunday, August 7.

Phyna

Amaka

Khalid

Cyph: Evicted

Eloswag hands over to Hermes as Head of House

For the second time, a member of Level 1 house has emerged as the new head of house, he becomes week 2 HoH. The 26 housemates, except the outgoing HoH and the two fake housemates, participated in the task which involves resetting wristwatches dipped inside an oily bowl.

In the first round, Cyph, Dotun, and Hermes made it to the second round. Hermes beat his competitors with the most balls in his bucket.

The housemate who emerges HoH is immune from eviction and safes his co-level housemates from being evicted. Again, Level 1 housemates are safe from eviction if one holds on Sunday.

In related news, Dotun emerged as the new Tail of House in week 2, for mishandling his microphone during the game.

Ebuka introduces two new housemates

Deji (from Lagos) and Modela (from Osun). While everyone was expecting at least one of the existing 24 housemates to be evicted Sunday, July 31, the host of the show ushered in the 25th housemate into level 1 house and the 26th housemate into level 2 house. According to Ebuka, “they are fake housemates”

Highlight from Level-Up First Saturday Night Party

The first Saturday night party for the level-up housemates on July 30 was lit as level 1 and level 2 stormed the dancing floor with their swag. It was an opportunity for the two housemates to mingle once again.

There were more than enough alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks to go around, it was fun to its fullest for the 24 housemates who anticipated the party and said it was about the fun.

We had our ears on the ground during and after the party, but here are some of the highlights of the night which is gradually revealing the hidden feelings among housemates:

Cyph kisses Doyin passionately, but it seemed Doyin was a bit tipsy, well it was part of the game for her as she looks good while Cyph was boastfully moving around like…” yeah, I did it!”

The camera also caught Phyna and Bryann having their lips locked. It was a short one. It was a nice moment for both.

Pyna also locked lips with Eloswag (HoH). The touching in sensitive places were countless, so there was no need to count them as part of our highlights.

We didn’t see much of Daniella and Khalid, but both were all over themselves during and after the party cuddling and having something to whisper in each other’s ears. We might see another relationship building up.

And after the party, Amaka made a lot of revelations. One of them is, “I can’t wait for Biggie to join level 1 and level 2 together”, saying, “Na inside there (level 2 ) the real guy dey.”

Later, she (Amaka) revealed to Phyna that she liked Dotun and ‘vowed’ to hijack Dotun from whoever lady he is hooked with, but does the cool-looking Dotun have a similar feeling for Amaka?

Beauty was caught reprimanding Groovy for dancing away with another lady while he (Groovy) gives her little attention.

Specifically, the former Miss Nigeria caught Groovy dancing with Chomsy with whom she is not comfortable. She frankly expressed her displeasure to the Groovy, “you disrespected me.”

Another housemate, Ilebaye who tried to talk to Beauty while she was complaining didn’t work. The conversation degenerated to both using abusive words against each other.

There are lots more that happened, but we like to make it short.

Did you also hear Doyin say, “she likes a guy that has the confidence that will say, come on girl”?

Did we miss anything? Share the most interesting moments you saw in the house with us in the comment below.

Eloswag becomes the first Head of House (HoH) for Season 7

Beauty represented Taraba state in 2019 at the Miss Nigeria pageant which was held at Eko Convention Center, Nigeria’s commercial city of Lagos, and won the pageant and became the 43rd Miss Nigeria.

Miss Tukura succeeded Chidinma Leilani Aaron, the 42nd Miss Nigeria.
