I’m just grateful I have legs to wear shoes. If anyone is not happy about my same shoes. Wait until I’m wearing just the same outfits.

As tonight caps the final day of the fifth edition of the Big Brother Naija: Lockdown show with …. emerging as winner of the show, it apparently was a fierce battle among the fans as they put in their all to vote for their favourite housemates.
T’was a quite distant gap between Laycon and Dorathy for him to emerge winner of the show. The distance in the percentage gap definitely has to be record-breaking as it shows that Laycon has the strongest fanbase of the season.
The finale show saw finalists, Vee, Neo and Nengi coming in at fourth, third and second runner-up respectively.
Laycon emerged as winner of the Lockdown edition of the show, leaving Dorathy as the second runner-up. Here’s the percentage garnered as a result of fans’ voting,
Nigerian rapper, Olamilekan Agbeleshe popularly known as LAYCON, has won the Big Brother Naija ‘lockdown’ edition.
During his last ever conversation with Big Brother, Laycon said that if he had to sum up his experience in a few words they would be: life-changing, unexplainable, and wonderful.
On the whole, he feels that Big Brother facilitated a lot of growth for him mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually and that he would forever be grateful for that.
If he was announced as the winner he would invest a lot of his money, but his main focus would be on his music career.
Laycon’s journey in the house came to a victorious house as he’d be going home with prizes amounting nothing less than 85 Million Naira and his music career has also been shot to limelight.

Moments ago Ebuka asked Dorathy to finally spill the tea on who she liked the most when she was still in the Big Brother house and the 24 year old, who initially tried to play smart, said “Ebuka” but when Ebuka asked her to be serious, she revealed it was Brighto.
She had earlier stated that if she made it into the Big Brother house, then she would reveal the guy that she liked most in the house and not so surprisingly, it’s Brighto.
Nengi has emerged the second runner-up of the Big Brother Naija Lockdown Season.

The Big Brother Naija reality TV show ends in few minutes, however Nengi has just hit a record of being the second housemate to garner a million Instagram follower while still in the house.
Although the Bayelsa born model becomes the second housemate to garner 1million followers in the Big Brother Naija, she has officially joined Kiddwaya and Laycon as the only three ‘lockdown’ housemates to hit 1 million followers on Instagram.
See screenshot of her Instagram page below,
Recall that few days ago, Laycon set the record of being the first housemate ever to hit a million followers in the house.
This feat makes him the first housemate ever to hit the million mark as a result of the fame he’s garnered in the Big Brother house.
Today, Sunday 27th of September, 2020 marks the finale of the Big Brother Naija: Lockdown show and while viewers are —as at the time of filing this report— anticipating the winner of the fifth edition of the show, we can’t help but notice the gorgeous outfits the former housemates of the show donned to the event.
The lockdown housemates who didn’t make it to the finale of the show as they faced evictions in weeks prior, were invited to grace the final live eviction show where the winner will be announced.
Here are photos of the housemates we got our hands on,
Neo has been evicted from the Big Brother Naija house.
Show-host, Ebuka had earlier announced his romantic partner, Vee, as the first of the finalists to leave the house. Ebuka would return moments later to announce Neo’s name as the next housemate to leave the BBNaija house.
Neo was satisfied with his journey in the house and just like Big Brother earlier said, it has been a Cinderella for all the housemates.
In his last diary session, Neo told Biggie that he feels that he shouldn’t go home, he should rather just stay in Biggie’s House once the show is over. He admitted that the show has been a major cruise. He likened it to a free of charge vacation where you don’t have to do much, you can eat as much as you like, and you meet nice people. He added that he doesn’t feel as if he is in Naija right now. He also thanked Biggie because the House helped him explore himself and brought him out of his shell. He closed off by saying that at the end of the day he came here to be somebody and to do that he has to continue doing whatever it is he has to do.
Show-host, Ebuka announced her name as the first of the finalists to leave the house.
Vee, by virtue of being a finalist, emerged the fourth runner-up of the reality show.
In her final diary session, Vee told Biggie that it has been an emotional ride but it has also been fun, fun, fun! She said that all the ups and downs were enjoyable and she has no regrets. If she scoops the prize during the Live Show tonight, she would give some of the money to her mother. Her mother was the biggest motivator behind her Big Brother journey, and save the emainder of the money. She closed off their chat by saying she is 100% content and hoped that she didn’t cause too much trouble for him.
In a recent conversation that ensued among the housemates, Nengi revealed that she cannot date Kid because she can only be attracted to guys who are clean.
The model backed up her claims by citing an example of when she entered the head of house lounge after Kiddwaya and met the whole place dirty.
Meanwhile, Dorathy claimed that the billionaire son’s bedside was always littered, all through his stay in the house.
Neo and others agreed with her, adding that Kidd doesn’t bath well because he is dirty.
Recall that after Kiddwaya’s eviction from the big brother house, he constantly claimed nobody in the house was up to his level.
Kiddwaya further expressed his high self-esteem and said he wasn’t threatened by any one in the house as none of the housemates were a match for him.
“I am my own man and I am comfortable in my skin.
“I don’t fear anybody. Nobody in the house was up to my level, so I wasn’t threatened by anyone” he said

Big Brother Naija 2019 star, Elozonam has been trending on social media all day and it wasn’t for a good reason.
A man based in the abroad seemingly accused the reality star of frolicking with his Nigerian-based wife.
Summary of the Elozonam gist:
He stays abroad, he has a girl in Naija he wants to get married to. She’s sleeping around & one of her side guys named her breast Mary and Martha. He found out & he wants to end things. Even Elozonam for BBnaija collect sef. Fear women
Elozonam did not let this slide and he took to his page to debunk the claim.
My attention has been drawn to the tweet of Michael, spouse of Defunke of this morning the 27th of September 2020 about a chat that happened in January 2020. @_cvv_aaa
I did not sleep with his wife and that he ambiguously put out a statement, tagged my handle and led people to believe otherwise is highly offensive.
He then put out a tweet to absolve me of the allegations and on that note, I demand a full apology and retraction of the statement he made.

Plus size Nollywood actress, Ifeoma Okeke-Ozzoude, has opened up on why she embarked on a weight loss journey.
According to the thespian, the death of a plus-size friend forced her into ”doing something about her size”.
Speaking in a recent interview with Vanguard, Ifeoma said: “When I heard the news of her death, I immediately rushed to her house, where her neighbours narrated the horrible story of how they were struggling to bring her out of the house, while she was gasping for breath.
At that point, something just struck my head that if I am sick now, how would people bring me out of the house.
You know there’s this realization point. I have never felt my weight before. It has never bothered me in my life. I can stand from now till tomorrow I won’t feel it. I can do anything, I am that flexible with myself.
They said it was a struggle to drag her from upstairs to downstairs. They couldn’t force her inside the car. They had to dump her at the back of a Hilux jeep. I just felt that if she were to be a slim person, she could have had a chance of surviving.
I have been sick and I know how it feels when you have to gasp for breath. But nothing brought me to that point of self-realization. And it’s only you that can tell yourself the truth.
Even after her death, I tried to shake it off, but indirectly people insult obese ones. I just woke up one day and said to myself, it’s time I do something about my size.”
Actress Ese Eriata recently took to her social media page to advise her fans on the importance of not basing one’s happiness on “money”.
The ex-BBN fake housemate in her post, stated that money shouldn’t be the reason one is unhappy. The actress who noted that money only solves problem, added that there are things money can’t buy.
In her words :
I write this message from the deepest part of my heart to you who needs to see this.
Do not ever think money will make you happy, it can only solve your problems. No matter how much you have ; there will be one thing you will desire so badly but your money will and can never buy it.
While you are on a hot seat to make this money, don’t forget to be happy ; and appreciate every little thing you have pushed yourself to do.
Don’t ever let money be the reason why you are not happy. Back then, people will say ”Money is not everything” and i would say ”make i see the money first before i go understand wetin una dey talk”.
Many years down the line ”Money is really everything”.
Big brother Naija 2020 finalist, Nengi could not hold back tears last night after she was ignored by her closest friend Ozo at their finale Saturday party.
The final Saturday night party in this year’s big brother naija house saw a little bit of reunion as previously evicted housemates were invited to have a final groove with the finalists.
Nengi was however convinced that they all ignored her including her closest friend in the house, Ozo. After the party, Nengi broke down in tears as she explained to fellow housemates, Neo, Vee, Laycon and Dorathy that Ozo ignored her.
Reacting on the issue, DJ Kaywise opined that Ozo has lost whatever chance he may have had to be with Nengi.
He wrote on twitter ;
Nengi really likes ozo, that’s why she’s sad that he ignored her. Ozo would have had a chance with nengi outside the house, she was only being careful. But with what he pulled this night from peer pressure, I’m not sure anymore. #bbnaija

The final Saturday night party in this year’s big brother naija house saw a little bit of reunion as previously evicted housemates were invited to have a final groove with the finalists.
The housemates used the opportunity to catch up on the memories made in the house but one little observation that was very interesting was the fact that Ozo ignored his close ally, Nengi, throughout the party.
Later on, Nengi was seen lamenting about how she was ignored.
A crying Nengi told Laycon ;
I was trying to talk to Ozo, he was ignoring me. Even Prince spoke to me but Ozo was ignoring me. That friendship is over
Nengi is that typical naija girl that will make you feel like you’re bugging them when you’re trying to show love and care but the moment you ignore them for a week they start crying blood and make you seem like the bad guy
BBNaija finalist, Olamilekan Agbeleshe, simply referred to as Laycon has revealed intentions immediately he steps out of this house.
The BBNaija housemate and upcoming singer said the first thing he will do when he returns home after the show is take his mum to the hospital for medical check-up.
The 26-year-old rapper from Lagos State disclosed this while having a conversation with his fellow housemates and finalists.
Laycon said that he wants his mum to enjoy the fruit of her labor so he wants her to be in good health so as to live to spend his money.
In less than 48 hours, the curtain will be drawn on what has been a very entertaining season of the Big Brother Naija reality show which was themed ‘lockdown’ edition, a theme that suited the realities of the outside world.
This year has undoubtedly been an interesting yet innovative one. The covid-19 pandemic changed the order of things and reality TV was not left out.
The BBNaija auditions were done online and painstakingly, the housemates were picked to be the next big thing in the country. They were 20 in number and they came into the house with alot of confidence and swagger….pause…. there was however, one young man whose appearance/entrance instantly became the butt of jokes and brutal memes, his name – LAYCON.
This Lekan guy may look underrated because of his physical appearance but don't be too quick to judge #BBNaija
— Toba Agboola (GMNSC) ?? (@TobaAgboola) July 19, 2020
LAYCON instantly became a trending topic on micro-blogging website, Twitter. He was deemed to be the type of Nigerian youth that would be an easy target for police harassments and other palaver.
However, things started taking a different twist upon the discovery that the young man is a very promising rapper with a philosophical brain (Mad oo)
Laycon’s fans was birthed and they tagged themselves ”THE ICONS”, it was a whole new level of stanning for the UNILAG graduate.
Laycon’s time in the house has been a fairytale, he kept on dominating the trends and his fanbase did not stop growing. Laycon was put up for possible eviction for several weeks and in those weeks, his votes polled a high percentage.
He got embroiled in a dramatic love-triangle with Erica and the topsy-turvy relationship they did or did not have culminated in getting the latter disqualified.
Laycon moved on from that messy moment as his fans brushed it aside. They gave so much energy and hype was built for his name anytime it came to the business of voting.
These ICONS have consistently kept him in the house for 70 days and the voting portals closed yesterday. He’s currently battling with his fellow finalists, Nengi, Neo, Vee and Dorathy for the 85 Million Ultimate prize. The big question now is.. What will happen if LAYCON doesn’t win tomorrow ?
BBNaija ex-housemate, Kiddwaya has officially joined Laycon as the only two season 5 housemates to hit 1 million followers on Instagram.
Billionaire’s son, Kiddwaya has now become the second housemate after Laycon to reach 1 million followers on the popular photo and video sharing app, Instagram.
See screenshot of his Instagram page below;
Recall that few weeks ago, Olamilekan Agbeleshe ”Laycon” became the first lockdown housemate to reach 1 million followers on IG and first BBNaija housemate to ever garner 1 million followers on Instagram while still in the house.
A 26-year-old man, Chisom Ogum, has been arrested by men of the Anambra state police command for allegedly killing his biological father, Christopher Ogum, 70, and burying him in a shallow grave in Umuomaku community in Orumba South local government area of the state today September 26.
According to reports, Chisom reportedly went berserk, attacked, and killed his father with a shovel and then buried him in a shallow grave. The suspect attempted to escape before he was apprehended and beaten to stupor by an angry mob who equally forced him to exhume the corpse of his father from where he buried it.
Confirming the incident to newsmen, the spokesperson of the state police command, Haruna Mohammed, said police detectives visited the scene of the crime, photographed the victim and took the corpse to the mortuary for autopsy after it was certified dead by a medical doctor at Umunze general hospital.
Haruna said the offensive weapon used in perpetrating the offence was also recovered as an exhibit.
He added that the state Commissioner of Police CP John B.Abang has ordered for the case to be transferred to the State CID Awka for discreet investigation.
