BBTitans: Four Housemates Evicted From Show
After a quiet fortnight with zero evictions, the stakes suddenly got a lot higher with two pairs – four housemates in total – being evicted from the house during tonight’s live show, making it a lot emptier suddenly.
This comes after what has already been a tough week: unrequited love, a failed wager task, and arguments have marked the week as possibly the toughest the housemates have had to endure since the game started. Some of them might have seen this coming, of course: as we’ve said so many times, simple maths would have told them that big cuts were on the way. There are only so many weeks of the game left, after all.
While the housemates may have expected a rough night, witnessing it actually go down is another thing. Yemi Cregx, Nelisa, Juicy Jay, and Olivia were the unlucky four who were told to make their way out of the front door, tonight, and we’re certain they had the hardest time with the whole thing.
During her diary session earlier today, Nelisa mentioned that she was feeling nervous, although she was trying to remain positive. She said that the mood in the house has been getting better because the housemates have realised that they have no control over what happens during the live show – she certainly had that right. Yemi, on the other hand, felt that the mood in the house was “dragging”, which seems to comport with what we’ve seen going on.
Following their exit from the house and their entrance on stage, Yemi Cregx was slow to adjust to the new environment. “I don’t know what I’m doing here, I should be in there, right now.” We suppose 49 days in the same house can have that effect. When asked about her semi-ship with Thabang, Nelisa said, “I really like Thabang, he’s such a genuine soul when he wants to be.” She did express concern that he is now in the house, alone with Khosi. “There’s a certain someone we left in the house, right Yemi?”
As for Juicy Jay and Olivia, both told Biggie that they partied up a storm during the Saturday Night Party, so at least they leave with a good memory to finish off their stay. Looking back, Juicy Jay felt that he had always been encouraging to other housemates, a sentiment with which we have to agree. He was positivity, personified. Olivia said that not being up for eviction can make one feel the pressure more, because you have to remain sensitive to others’ feelings.
Speaking to Lawrence and Ebuka, Juicy Jay remained positive. “I don’t think I did anything wrong. I enjoyed my time in the house.” That’s a good attitude to have. When pressed about her tendency to gossip, Olivia pushed back with, “I don’t gossip, I call it ‘analysing’.” Which is funny if a little bit inaccurate.
And with that, the house suddenly finds itself reduced to 12. Spare a thought for Khosi, who has just lost her bae, and Yvonne, who must feel like she’s just had surgery after her permanent lip-lock with Juicy has just been so rudely severed. On the other hand, we might finally discover what Thabang really thinks of Nelisa now that she’s no longer around to make her moves, and absence has a chance to make the heart grow fonder.
As they signed out of tonight’s show, Lawrence and Ebuka urged viewers to tune in to Monday’s live eviction show as everyone would expect a “unique twist”. We’re not sure what that might mean, until Monday.
Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has publicly declared love and appreciation for her former husband, Olakunle Churchill, years after their highly publicised split.
The emotional moment occurred during their son King Andre’s 10th birthday celebration held in Abuja, where Dikeh offered heartfelt prayers and words of affirmation for Churchill in the presence of guests.
In a video from the event that has since gone viral on social media, the actress described Churchill as “an amazing father” and expressed gratitude for his role in their son’s life.

“You are an amazing father, thank you so much,” she said. “Your businesses will flourish; whoever curses you shall be cursed. I love you with the love of God.”
Dikeh further prayed for Churchill’s family and children, asking for divine protection, success and progress in all their endeavours.
“I pray for your family. I pray for your business. I pray for all the children. They will progress. Failure will not meet them. Everything that they touch will be blessed,” she declared.
The development marks a significant shift in the relationship between the former couple, whose marriage ended in 2017 amid allegations and public disputes that dominated entertainment headlines for years.
Recently, Dikeh revealed that they had reconciled and “buried the hatchet,” signalling an end to their long-running feud and a renewed focus on peaceful co-parenting.
Churchill later married actress Rosy Meurer in 2021, and the couple have two children together. Despite past controversies, both families appear to have embraced maturity and mutual respect.
The birthday celebration and Dikeh’s public declaration have since sparked mixed reactions online, with many applauding the former couple for putting aside differences for the sake of their son.

Preliminary autopsy results have ruled out food poisoning as the cause of death for two Nollywood production crew members found dead at a movie set in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos, on February 7, 2026.
The victims, 36-year-old cinematographer Walter Odediran and his childhood friend Godstime Imeh, Lighting Director and Chief Officer of GeeTee Light, were discovered lifeless inside a Nissan car owned by Imeh, parked within the premises of Evercare Hospital, where a film was being shot.

According to sources, the autopsy revealed that one of the victims had an empty stomach, while the other had only a small amount of food — “almost as if he hadn’t eaten anything,” a source said.
Walter Odediran’s elder brother, Kola Odediran, confirmed that the family had received the preliminary autopsy report. He said: “The autopsy itself is complete, and no food was found in my late brother.
“The results indicate he did not eat anything. But they are going to carry out toxicology and histology tests, which will provide the definitive answers we are looking for.”
To determine the exact cause of death, experts will conduct additional tests on blood and tissue samples to find out whether the victims ingested or inhaled any harmful substances before their deaths.
These results are expected in two to three weeks.
Relatives of the deceased, as well as colleagues in the Nollywood industry, are awaiting the findings with bated breath, hoping the upcoming tests will shed light on the mysterious circumstances surrounding this tragic incident.
