BBNaija S10 Eviction: Victory Leaves the House
The Big Brother Naija Season 10 house, themed “10/10,” witnessed a dramatic double eviction on Sunday, August 24, 2025, as Victory Okokon, a polarizing and strategic housemate, was sent packing alongside Gigi Jasmine during the live show hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu. The announcement, which marked the end of Victory’s four-week journey in the reality TV phenomenon, stunned fans and sparked heated reactions across Nigeria and beyond, with the eviction leaving 22 housemates vying for the ₦150 million grand prize.
Victory, a 28-year-old psychologist from Akwa Ibom State, entered the BBNaija house on July 26, 2025, with a reputation for bold confidence and tactical gameplay. His Week 2 tenure as Head of House (HoH), where he dethroned Thelma Lawson in a dramatic Monday challenger game, solidified his status as a formidable contender, per P.M. News. His decision to appoint Joanna as his deputy fueled speculation about their dynamic, while his confrontations, including a heated clash with Thelma over food and condoms, divided viewers and sparked social media debates. A notable altercation with housemate Kuture over comments about Tracy further cemented his “villain” label among some fans, per BellaNaija.com.
The eviction came after a tense nomination process, where 20 housemates faced possible eviction after failing to find a hidden immunity envelope in a house-wide task, as reported by Premium Times. Victory, who had previously saved Kayikunmi as HoH, received just 2.15% of viewer votes, trailing Ivatar’s 2.22%, per Naija News. Gigi Jasmine polled the lowest at 1.51%. Big Brother, in a statement shared on the show’s official X handle @BBNaija, said, “Victory takes the exit. Some soar, some stumble, and Victory has just been evicted from the game. Their name’s now etched in Biggie history.”
Reactions on X were mixed. @BBNaija tweeted, “Victory takes the exit 🚪💀 We wish him the best in his future endeavours. #BBNaija,” while @NaijaGist posted, “Never saw Victory leaving this early! He brought content and competition. #BBNaijaS10.” Critics like @TruthSeekerNG labeled him a “villain,” tweeting, “Victory’s confrontations got him out. Good riddance! #BBNaija,” while supporters praised his bold personality, with @EagleEyeNG writing, “Victory gave us premium drama! He’ll be missed. #10/10.”
Victory’s eviction, the sixth of the season following Sabrina’s medical exit, has shifted house dynamics, with Mensan emerging as Week 5’s Most Influential Player, securing immunity, per Tribune Online. The show, now in its fourth week, continues to captivate audiences with unpredictable twists, as 22 housemates remain in the race for the record-breaking prize.
