Season 10 introduced several format changes, including a revamped Head of House challenge that now airs on Sunday nights, with winners retaining authority only until a follow-up challenger game on Monday. Housemates who finish last in the HOH challenge are automatically placed up for nomination.
The season also introduced new twists, such as the “Bag of Big Twists,” controlled by the Head of House, and a “red telephone” that rings at random times with instructions from Biggie. A new “Influential Player of the Week” feature was also added to the game structure.
Imisi Ayanwale emerged as the winner of Season 10 after securing 42.8 percent of the total votes, beating other finalists, including Dede, Koyin, Sultana, Kola, Jason Jae, Mensan, Isabella, and Kaybobo. Her victory added to the show’s growing list of champions, which includes names such as Mercy Eke, Laycon, Whitemoney, Kellyrae, Phyna, and Ilebaye.
