The aftermath of the Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) ‘Ten Over Ten’ finale continues to stir reactions, as first runner-up Dede Ashiogwu has addressed allegations surrounding the outcome of the competition.
During the grand finale, Imisi emerged victorious, securing the coveted ₦150 million prize, while Dede Ashiogwu finished closely behind. The result quickly sparked controversy, with some voices questioning the credibility of the voting process.
Among those who raised concerns was Ossai Ovie Success, an aide to Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State. He suggested that the result may have been influenced by regional considerations, claiming that the show’s organizers were unwilling to allow another Delta contestant to win back-to-back seasons.
The claims also extended to accusations of manipulation, with suggestions that the voting system did not reflect the true will of the audience. However, these assertions were met with a firm response from Dede Ashiogwu herself.
Speaking after the event, the reality star dismissed the idea that bias or interference determined the outcome. She emphasized that the result was simply a reflection of the votes cast, indicating that Imisi earned her victory fairly through public support.
According to Gossip News Now, Dede Ashiogwu maintained that merit, rather than regional affiliation, played the decisive role in the final result, reinforcing confidence in the show’s voting system.
Rather than dwell on the controversy, she appears focused on the future. The BBNaija star has expressed a strong interest in building a career within the entertainment industry, particularly in acting and creative storytelling.
She hinted at bringing fresh ideas and originality to her upcoming projects, signaling her intention to make a lasting impact beyond reality television.
