Big Brother Naija Season 10: Week 4 Recap – Drama, Memories, and Shocking Twists
The fourth week of Big Brother Naija Season 10 unfolded with a blend of intense drama, nostalgic moments, and unexpected twists that kept viewers and housemates on edge. From Zita’s triumphant claim of the Head of House title to surprising evictions and kitchen confrontations, the contestants faced a whirlwind of emotions and challenges under Biggie’s ever-watchful gaze.
Here’s a comprehensive overview of the standout events and emotional highs and lows that defined the week.
Zita’s Ascendancy: The New Head of House
Initially, Doris held the Head of House position, but her reign was short-lived. Zita emerged victorious in a competitive challenge, becoming only the second female to secure the HOH role this season. Her leadership style was reminiscent of a caring elder sibling, especially during Nostalgia Week, as she delegated household tasks and attempted to maintain order, though not without some resistance from fellow housemates.

Morning Revelations and Emotional Exchanges
The week began with a peaceful indoor workout led by Kaybobo, but breakfast soon turned into a stage for emotional outbursts. Imisi reacted sharply when accused of hoarding bread, while Sultana opened up to Kuture about a kiss shared with Koyin before her complicated relationship with Jason Jae. Rooboy pondered themes of trust and self-improvement, and Victory shared a sincere apology with Bright Morgan for his candid remarks about other women. Meanwhile, Dede and Mide set clear boundaries, and Jason Jae addressed lingering tensions in his love triangle, bringing some closure.
Immunity Chase and Nominations Drama
The nomination process kicked off with the frantic search for immunity red envelopes, a staple of the game’s suspense. Only Koyin, Imisi, Mensan, and Victory remained in the hunt, with Victory narrowly missing out. A tense showdown between Koyin and Kaybobo ended with Kaybobo prevailing through sheer strength. With Zita as HOH, Jason Jae as Most Influential Player, and Rooboy as House Snail exempted, Rooboy was automatically up for eviction. Zita used the Tree of Trinkets to save Mensan and Faith, leaving 20 housemates vulnerable. The prize fund swelled to ₦25 million, thanks to Biggie’s generous reward.
Kitchen Conflicts and Social Strains
Food-related disputes heated up the atmosphere, especially when Victory cooked two fish portions for himself, sparking a confrontation with Kaybobo. Imisi was cautioned to prepare her own meals, while Doris advised Gigi Jasmine on handling negative vibes within the house. Gossip and advice circulated widely, exposing fractures in friendships and trust, leading to whispered warnings and direct confrontations.
Diary Room Insights: Vulnerabilities and Power Struggles
In private confessions, Imisi expressed feelings of fatigue and mistrust towards many house relationships. Denari evaluated his own journey and growth, while Gigi Jasmine revealed loneliness beneath her cheerful demeanor. Rooboy admitted frustration with the ongoing power dynamics and food disputes, declaring he was “no longer the good guy.” Ivatar cautioned about hidden adversaries, and Koyin celebrated his first birthday inside the house with cake, games, and laughter, creating a memorable milestone.
Nostalgia Week: Childhood Memories Stir Sibling Rivalries
Themed Nostalgia Week encouraged housemates to revisit their pasts, sparking sibling-like disputes. Zita’s role as the eldest sister tasked her with chore management, but subtle rebellions from Faith, Big Soso, and others challenged her authority. Mide’s playful enforcement earned her the nickname “Kitchen Police,” though underlying tensions lingered.
