Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemates are finally returning to the couch as MultiChoice Nigeria announced the reunion show will premiere on Sunday June 8, 2026. The announcement dropped on Monday across the show’s official social media platforms with the tagline “Some receipts were never meant to stay in the drafts. The #BBNaija S10 housemates are back on the couch, and nothing is off the table.” Fans have been counting down since the finale last October, and the post immediately sparked theories about which unresolved fights and alliances will be addressed first. The reunion is expected to run from Monday to Friday, giving viewers a full week of confrontations and clarifications.
All 29 housemates from the landmark “10/10” season will be back in the studio, hosted again by media personality Ebuka Obi-Uchendu. Season 10 aired from July to October 2025 and was the biggest cast in BBNaija history, which means the reunion table will be packed. It will broadcast at 10:00 pm WAT on Africa Magic Showcase and 10:30 pm WAT on Africa Magic Family, with episodes also available the next day on DStv Stream and GOtv Stream. MultiChoice teased that “the timelines have theories, the fans have receipts, and the housemates have explanations,” setting the stage for heated exchanges.
The season ended with Opeyemi Ayanwale, known as Imisi, emerging as winner on October 5, 2025 with 42.84% of the public vote. The 23-year-old fashion designer and actress from Oyo State walked away with a ₦150 million grand prize that included ₦80 million cash and a brand-new Innoson SUV. Finalists who will also appear include Dede, Koyin, Sultana, Kola, Jason Jae, Mensan, Kaybobo and Isabella. Another major talking point was Faith’s disqualification in the final week after a physical altercation with Sultana, and fans are expecting both sides to give their account during the reunion.
Season 10 was filled with viral moments that dominated social media for weeks. There was the infamous spoon-related standoff that trended across X for days, a string of romantic entanglements that split fan bases, and the “Bag of Big Twists” that included a red telephone delivering random instructions from Biggie. New mechanics like the restructured Head of House challenge and the Influential Player of the Week also kept the house unpredictable. Because so much happened, the reunion is being positioned as the place to get closure on conflicts, clarify lingering tensions, and let housemates reflect on how their experiences played out on live TV.
The timing lines up with preparations for Season 11, which already held physical auditions in Lagos, Abuja and Enugu between May 22 and 24. Organisers recently cautioned Nigerians against fraudulent messages demanding payment for BBNaija auditions, reiterating that participation remains free and transparent. With the next edition on the horizon, the Season 10 reunion serves as a bridge, wrapping up the last season’s storylines before a new cast enters the house. For many viewers, it’s the unofficial end of the “10/10” era.
Reunions have become a core part of the BBNaija franchise because they let contestants address public perceptions that formed while they were isolated. Housemates often revisit broken friendships, romantic partnerships, and betrayals that fans dissected online for months. Ebuka’s moderation is key here, as he’s known for pressing for details and making sure everyone gets a chance to speak. With 29 personalities in one room, expect alliances to be tested again and old grudges to resurface.
For fans, the big questions going into June 8 are whether hidden truths will come out and who still has receipts to drop. The phrase about drafts suggests some housemates held back information during the season and may finally reveal it face-to-face. That could mean clarifications on voting strategies, conversations that happened off-camera, or explanations for behavior that trended for the wrong reasons. Social media is already buzzing with predictions about which pairings will clash and which reconciliations might happen.
The reunion will also be a chance for housemates to reconnect with fans after months apart. Many have gone on to build brands, acting gigs, fashion lines, and influencer deals since October. Imisi has been making appearances as winner, while others like Dede, Koyin and Sultana have stayed active online. When they sit down together, viewers will get to see how relationships have changed outside the house and whether the drama was real or just strategy. Either way, June 8 is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about TV events of the year, closing Season 10 with the same intensity it started with.
