The Big Brother Naija Season 10 house witnessed a major shake-up on Monday as 24-year-old Zita snatched the coveted Head of House (HOH) crown from Koyin, ending his reign less than 24 hours after it began.
The high-stakes contest featured Faith, Thelma Lawson, Bright Morgan, Kola, and Zita, all of whom had also made it to the finals of Sunday’s challenge. In a tense battle of wits and endurance, Zita outlasted her rivals and secured the top spot, forcing Koyin to step down almost immediately after his victory.
Exercising her new powers, Zita picked Kola as her companion in the exclusive HOH lounge. This move has raised eyebrows among fans, especially since the young strategist has a history of making calculated choices. During her first reign in Week Four, she ousted Doris and selected Rooboy as her guest—a decision many believe was part of her long-term game plan.
Koyin’s brief reign was not without highlights. On Sunday, he had emerged victorious in a two-part competition that saw him edge out the same set of finalists. He chose Jason Jae as his lounge partner before unveiling this week’s theme, “Flying Solo.” Big Brother’s brief requires housemates to embark on a journey of self-discovery while teaming up in pairs to deliver cultural presentations about Nigerian states. Their ability to impress Big Brother with the task will determine their food supply for the week.
Meanwhile, Faith earned a big advantage after being named the Most Influential Player, a title that automatically grants him immunity from eviction.
With Zita now holding the reins once again, and her gameplay strategy already drawing attention, fans are watching closely to see how the power shift will impact alliances, rivalries, and the overall dynamics of the house.
