Gigi Jasmine Calls Imisi “Fake but Strategic”
Speaking in a post-eviction interview with Pulse Nigeria, Gigi Jasmine, real name Nicole Simon-Ogan, accused Imisi of acting her way through the competition.
“Imisi, don’t play with me. I know that you’re a fake. Like honestly, do not play with me. I know that you’re just acting,” Gigi declared.
She pointed to Imisi’s ability to mimic accents and her overly cheerful responses whenever Biggie called her as signs of a deliberate strategy. But in a twist, Gigi also admitted that Imisi’s approach was smart, even describing it as the “best strategy yet.”
This half-praise, half-condemnation set the stage for a fan war on X.

Mixed Reactions Flood X
The interview clips quickly went viral, sparking fiery debates.
- Support for Gigi: Some fans agreed with her bluntness, insisting that Imisi’s persona was too polished to be real. One fan, @Usmanashafe, referenced Gigi’s comments and gloated, “She go start finding out from this night #BBNaija.”
- Backlash Against Gigi: Others accused Gigi of hypocrisy, pointing out that she also displayed emotional manipulation in the house. Responding to a post by @MobilePunch, one fan wrote, “Gigi, you were very manipulative too. Using your tears to sway things. Why are you not talking about yourself?”
- Defense of Imisi: Imisi’s fans came out swinging, accusing housemates and critics of double standards. @AbigailMackline tweeted, “Why is it that when Imisi cries y’all rush to say no pity? Half the housemates broke down but nobody dragged them. The hate for Imisi is loud #BBNaija.”
Another user, @manon_updates, was frustrated by the hostility toward Imisi, posting, “Calling Imisi a thief is very unnecessary and rude. It breaks my heart how these housemates talk down on her #BBNaija.”
- Sympathy for Imisi: Others expressed concern for how she was treated in the house. @Qnapwa noted, “The way the housemates engage with Imisi especially when they are upset is very demeaning. They make it seem like she’s not fit to be there.”
Meanwhile, @thekhaleedahhh added, “The saddest thing is that majority have started seeing her as a problem for things that other people do worse.”

The History of Tension
Gigi and Imisi’s clash did not come out of nowhere. Their interactions in the house often carried tension. From disagreements during tasks to awkward moments around Faith, another polarizing housemate, their relationship reflected the competitive and emotionally charged nature of Season 10.
Gigi’s own conflicts — including her public regret about her relationship with Victory — shaped how fans judged her post-eviction remarks. For many, her criticisms of Imisi felt like projection; for others, it was refreshing honesty.

A Season Defined by Strategy and Perception
Big Brother Naija has always been a show where strategy and authenticity collide. Gigi Jasmine’s comments about Imisi not only highlighted this tension but also revealed how divided the fanbase has become.
While some believe Imisi’s vibrant personality is a calculated act, others see her as misunderstood and unfairly targeted. What remains clear is that Imisi has become one of the most talked-about housemates of Season 10 — and Gigi’s remarks have only amplified the spotlight on her.
With 22 housemates still competing for the ₦150 million grand prize, the battle for both survival in the house and fan loyalty outside of it is far from over.
