BBNaija Season 10 Opens With All-Female Housemates From Across Nigeria

Big Brother Naija Season 10 has officially kicked off—and in a bold twist, the first 15 housemates introduced are all women.

Ranging in age from 21 to 37 and hailing from different regions of Nigeria, the all-female lineup brings a vibrant mix of talent, confidence, and ambition into the newly revealed BBNaija mansion. From chefs and DJs to actresses, entrepreneurs, and therapists, these women are set to bring the heat as they compete for the record-breaking ₦150 million grand prize.

While the male contestants are expected to enter the house in the coming days, the spotlight is firmly on this dynamic group of women who are already stirring anticipation and excitement.

As the women begin their journey in the house, Season 10 is already shaking up tradition with new rules and formats.

This year, the Head of House challenge will now take place every Sunday, with an added twist: winners will face another exclusive challenge on Monday nights.

Even more groundbreaking is the new prize format—unlike previous seasons, the ₦150 million won’t be handed out all at once. Instead, it will be earned in portions over the course of the show, rewarding players who can stay consistent, strategic, and influential week after week.

With a fresh structure, an all-female opening, and high expectations, BBNaija Season 10 is already rewriting the script—and fans can’t wait to see what’s next.
