The Big Brother Naija Season 10 (BBNaija S10) house has been thrown into disarray once again after popular housemate Rooboy was abruptly evicted through the infamous red phone twist. This shocking development comes just hours after Dede and Joanna were also removed under similar circumstances, deepening speculation and heightening the drama in what is shaping up to be the most unpredictable season yet.
On Monday, the red telephone rang again, creating instant tension among housemates. This time, Rooboy picked up the call. On the other end of the line was none other than Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the show’s host, who calmly instructed Rooboy to leave the house immediately. Without further explanation, Ebuka declared him “evicted”, shocking both the contestant and his fellow housemates.
Just like Dede and Joanna before him, Rooboy’s exit was sealed with Biggie’s trademark countdown. He packed up and walked out of the house, leaving behind stunned contestants and confused fans.
Rooboy’s eviction is the third consecutive removal linked to the red phone twist. It all began when Dede answered the phone earlier in the week. She was asked to pick another housemate without being told why, and she chose Joanna. To their surprise, both were declared evicted on the spot.
Although many fans initially believed it to be a fake eviction, subsequent events suggested otherwise. The two were later spotted in a secluded room away from the main house, with only minimal screen appearances, sparking debates over whether they were permanently out of the competition or just temporarily sidelined.
The atmosphere in the BBNaija house has shifted dramatically. Following Rooboy’s exit, many housemates are now more cautious, fearful of what could happen if the red phone rings again. The air of uncertainty has made contestants rethink their strategies, alliances, and even daily interactions. The once playful house now carries an undertone of anxiety as everyone wonders who might be the next target.
According to reactions, some housemates were visibly shaken, while others whispered suspicions that Biggie might be staging an elaborate game designed to test their resilience and adaptability.
The news of Rooboy’s exit quickly spread across social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok, with fans using hashtags such as #BBNaijaRedPhone, #RooboyEvicted, and #BiggieTwist. Reactions have been divided. Some fans insist that the twist is only temporary and that the evicted housemates will eventually return. Others argue that Biggie has decided to shake up the show’s usual format to keep both housemates and viewers guessing.
Memes, video clips, and fan theories flooded timelines, with many calling the twist “the biggest shock in BBNaija history” and others accusing the show of being “unfair” to strong contenders like Rooboy.
Ebuka’s calm yet firm delivery of the eviction news over the red phone has added to the suspense. Known for his ability to maintain composure while delivering shocking announcements, Ebuka once again proved why he is the face of BBNaija drama. His voice alone convinced housemates that the eviction was official, even if many fans remain skeptical about its permanence.
Rooboy’s departure marks a turning point in BBNaija Season 10. He was not only a fan favorite but also a strong competitor whose strategies had started influencing the game. His sudden exit has left a vacuum in the house, opening the door for underdogs to rise and shifting the balance of power.
This also demonstrates Big Brother’s commitment to keeping the game unpredictable. With three consecutive red phone evictions, no one not even the most confident housemates can feel secure.
One of the biggest questions fans are asking is whether these evictions are real or staged. The presence of Dede and Joanna in a secluded room suggests that their eviction might be temporary. If Rooboy has joined them, the chances of a comeback twist are high.
If this happens, the re-entry could cause chaos in the house, especially as those who remain may feel betrayed or misled. It could also provide the evicted housemates with insider knowledge to strengthen their game.
Many fans believe that Big Brother is using the red phone as a tool to test both contestants and viewers. Some predict that the red phone twist will continue until several housemates are moved into the secret room, after which they will be reintroduced in a dramatic fashion. Others argue that the twist is meant to remind housemates that anything can happen at any time.
A few even suggest that the twist is part of a larger plan to keep ratings high, ensuring BBNaija remains the most talked-about show on African television.
With Rooboy now joining Dede and Joanna as victims of the red phone twist, BBNaija Season 10 has reached a new level of suspense. Fans remain divided over whether these evictions are real or part of Biggie’s elaborate mind game.
What is certain, however, is that the twist has worked perfectly: housemates are tense, viewers are engaged, and social media is buzzing. Whether Rooboy and the others will return remains to be seen, but one thing is clear this season is redefining the art of unpredictability in reality TV.
