As the Big Brother Naija “No Loose Guard” season heads into its final week, eight housemates have secured their spots in the finale, vying for the coveted 100 million grand prize. 

The finalists include Anita, Nelly, Onyeka, Ozee, Victoria, Wanni, Kellyrae and Sooj.

Host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu made the thrilling announcement on Sunday.

The past week was filled with emotional highs, heated arguments , and unexpected twists, after former housemates Rhutee, Chinwe, and Damola returned briefly to stir up the competition.

Kellyrae emerged victorious in last week’s Head of House (HOH) challenge, earning the first spot in the finale and the privilege of enjoying the luxurious HOH room.

He chose Kassia as his partner for the week, a decision that ultimately didn’t save her from the eviction.

After a tense round of diary room voting, nine housemates, Anita, Kassia, Nelly, Ocee, Onyeka, Ozee, Topher, Victoria, and Wanni were placed at the mercy of the viewers. 

When the votes were tallied, Kassia, Topher, and Ocee were evicted, leaving the remaining eight to battle it out in an expanded finale, a notable change from the usual five finalists in previous seasons.
