Share on FacebookShare on TwitterWhatsApp

After 71 days of intense drama and competition, the BBNaija Season 5 came to an end on Sunday.

Olamilekan Agbelesebioba, popularly known as Laycon, emerged winner after scoring the highest votes in the final week of the BBNaija Lockdown Edition.

The 26-year-old was awarded his gifts at a prize presentation ceremony on Wednesday at the MultiChoice studios in Lagos, where he was presented with the cash prize of N30 million, an SUV and a two-bedroom house.

Also mentioned was a N5 million prize from Betway awarded to Laycon and Ozo on their MAD Sports initiative, and all-expense paid trip to the Guinness House, Dublin for Dorathy and Laycon.

Laycon, who made history with over 60 per cent of the Big Brother Naija final votes, thanked the organizers, fellow housemates, family, fans and sponsors of the event.

“I don’t know what to say, I love you guys very much,” he said.

When asked about his plans and projects after the house, Laycon disclosed that he intends to work on projects that will impact the society positively.

Speaking at the Prize presentation, the Chief Executive Officer, MultiChoice Nigeria, John Ugbe, said: “Planning a show of this magnitude during these times was not without its challenges.

“For one, we resorted to holding virtual auditions where we received over 30,000 video entries, from which the ‘Lockdown 20’ were selected.”

Ugbe added that Big Brother Naija has changed the way we define employment and relevance.

In addition to participants being instant celebrities and influencers, other industries have been significantly impacted by the show and its participants.

He also disclosed that over 900 million votes were recorded across SMS, Mobile, Website and the DStv and GOtv Apps.

Ugbe thanked the viewers for watching and appreciated the Headline sponsor, Betway; the gold sponsor, Guinness; Category sponsors: Pepsi, OPPO, Flutterwave, Indomie, WAW Detergent, Darling Hair, Innoson Motors, Revolution Plus, TravelBeta, and all others who supported the show in different ways.

The Big Brother Naija reality show continues to touch not just the creative industry, but other industries as well.

Over 1,000 people directly and indirectly supported the production of Big Brother Naija Lockdown edition.

Cumulatively over the years, Big Brother Naija has provided over 10,000 jobs for fashion designers, content creators, interior decorators, logistic companies, prop makers, make-up artists, photographers, housekeepers, carpenters, caterers and many more.
