Temi Nkem has emerged as the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 11, tagged “Show Ya Sef,” after a dramatic grand finale held on Sunday, October 4, 2026.
Temi Nkem was crowned the Season 11 winner after making it through a final week that featured nine housemates. The grand finale was hosted by veteran presenter Ebuka Obi-Uchendu.
The season began on July 26 with 24 housemates competing for the grand prize before a series of evictions, twists and a disqualification reduced the competition to the finalists.
Sheba and Aikou also finished among the top three contestants, completing the leading trio of the “Show Ya Sef” season.
Bluethopia and Tram were among the top five finalists.
The Season 11 finale brought an end to more than 70 days of drama, friendships, rivalries, strategic gameplay, romance, tasks and unexpected twists inside the Big Brother house. The nine finalists heading into the finale were Aikou, Barry, Bluethopia, Flora, Oyin, Ricky, Sheba, Temi Nkem and Tram.
Temi Nkem had been one of the season’s most prominent housemates and survived a fake eviction alongside Tram and Ricky before returning to the house for the final stage of the competition.
The Season 11 winner succeeds Imisi, who won the previous edition of Big Brother Naija.
