BBNaija Housemate Faith Disqualified After Physical Assault on Sultana
The reality show Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) suddenly lost a contestant. An emergency meeting confirmed that BBNaija housemate Faith disqualified from the Season 10 competition. Biggie announced the dramatic decision on Thursday. He ordered Faith Adewale to immediately leave the house. Consequently, Faith’s action ended his run on the popular program.
His immediate removal followed a serious physical altercation with Sultana, a fellow housemate. The clash started during a group task. Sultana initially accused Faith of being overly controlling. She claimed he insisted on leading their group. However, the task did not relate to his medical background. The argument quickly escalated. Faith then aggressively dragged a basket. This basket contained essential group materials. Because of this violence, Sultana fell down. She reported sustaining a hand injury in the process.
Meanwhile, fellow housemate Kaybobo briefly stepped in. He took the basket away from Faith. Nonetheless, tensions remained extremely high between the two. A very frustrated Sultana later declared her position. She refused to work with Faith in the same group again. Show management stated that the incident clearly violated the house rules. These rules strictly forbid physical violence. Such offenses attract strikes. In addition, extreme cases result in immediate disqualification.
Faith’s disqualification marks the latest disciplinary action this season. Big Brother enforces its rule book very strictly. Article 18, subsection one, explicitly bans all violence. This violence includes physical aggression. It also covers provocation, goading, bullying, and victimisation. Big Brother reserves the right to punish any such act. They determine the appropriate penalty for all violations.
This disqualification highlights the show’s zero-tolerance policy. It recalls similar situations involving past housemates. For example, Erica, Beauty, and Tacha all faced comparable disciplinary action. In 2019, Tacha was disqualified. She fought with Mercy. Big Brother found Tacha guilty of violence and intent to harm. She pushed, shoved, and pulled Mercy’s hair. Mercy only received two strikes for provocation. She flicked her hair at Tacha. Furthermore, she failed to de-escalate the conflict.
Later, in 2020, Erica left the BBNaija house. She accumulated a string of rule infringements. Her actions included denying the Deputy Head of House lounge access. She also insulted other housemates. As Head of House, she disregarded Biggie’s rules. This happened despite receiving earlier warnings. Her cumulative strikes forced her immediate exit. BBNaija housemate Faith disqualified joins this list of offenders. In 2022, Beauty Tukura also faced disqualification. This occurred just two weeks into the season. She destroyed property. Also, she assaulted fellow housemate Groovy. Big Brother deemed her repeated misconduct unacceptable. The show continually makes a clear statement. Physical violence will not be tolerated.
