A Split Launch and Fake Nominations
The season opened in grand style with a split launch weekend — the women entered on Saturday, July 26, and the men joined the following day. But Big Brother had an early surprise: the first week’s “fake nominations” meant no one faced the public. Jason Jae earned Head of House immunity and saved Kayikunmi as housemates adjusted to the pressure of the game.

By Week 2, the real competition started. With Victory as Head of House, fans finally took charge through public voting. Imisi emerged as the early frontrunner with 12.85% of the votes, while Danboskid and Ibifubara became the first evictees of the season.
