Viewers of Big Brother Naija Season 10 were thrown into confusion on Monday afternoon after housemates Dede and Joanna were seemingly evicted in what turned out to be a dramatic prank.
The unexpected twist began when the famous red telephone rang inside the house. For years, the phone has symbolised Big Brother’s most unpredictable orders, and once again, it did not disappoint.
Dede picked up the call, only to be stunned by the voice of the show’s host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, on the other end. In a firm tone, Ebuka instructed her that she had just 10 seconds to choose another housemate to share in a surprise.
Without hesitation, Dede mentioned Joanna’s name. What followed was a shocking moment for both the housemates and millions of viewers across Nigeria and beyond.
Big Brother immediately ordered the two women to pack their belongings and leave the house. The announcement caused instant panic. Dede and Joanna scrambled to gather their possessions, while fellow contestants looked on in disbelief.
Inside the house, silence fell. Some housemates whispered that the eviction seemed unusual, but no one dared question Big Brother’s authority. On social media, fans expressed heartbreak and anger, with many insisting the eviction was unfair.
Minutes later, the cameras showed Dede and Joanna walking out of the main house. At that point, most viewers were convinced the pair had indeed been evicted from the competition.

But in classic Big Brother style, the story was far from over. A stunning revelation soon followed: Dede and Joanna were not evicted at all. Instead, they had been moved to a secret room within the Big Brother house, hidden from the eyes of their fellow contestants.
In the secret room, the two housemates were seen laughing nervously as they tried to make sense of the prank. Big Brother informed them that they would remain there for a while, cut off from the rest of the house, before rejoining the game with new instructions.
The fake eviction quickly became a trending topic online. Fans described it as one of the most shocking twists of the season. Many praised the show’s producers for keeping the audience on edge, while others admitted they had already started campaigning to save Dede and Joanna before learning it was a prank.
For the housemates left behind, the absence of Dede and Joanna created fresh tension. Some feared more surprises were on the way, while others speculated about whether the pair might return with secret powers or special privileges.
Big Brother has built a reputation for dramatic turns, and Monday’s prank added another layer of unpredictability to the ongoing season.
With weeks still left in the competition, viewers can expect more suspense, more tricks, and more emotional rollercoasters before the final winner emerges.
