Big Brother Naija Season 10 winner, Opeyemi Ayanwale, popularly known as Imisi, has revealed that her victory in the just-concluded reality show came as a complete surprise to her.
Speaking in a post-show interview with Arise TV, Imisi said she was not expecting to win and wasn’t even dressed for the occasion when she stepped onto the stage on Sunday night.
“Winning the reality show was shocking to me. Sincerely, I was not expecting to win. Before I got the show, I was tensed just hearing the crowd chant my name. I was shocked when I was announced the winner,” she said.
The 26-year-old also opened up about struggling with anxiety moments before the final announcement.
“I wore crocs to the stage because I am not comfortable in heels. I did not even plan for the live show,” she added.
Imisi emerged as the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 10 after defeating her closest rival, Dede, by a wide margin.
She received her grand prize of ₦150 million — comprising ₦80 million in cash and a brand-new Innoson SUV — during the prize presentation ceremony on Tuesday.
