Whitemoney wins big in Big Brother Naija ‘Shine Ya Eye Edition’ edition
Trending as Whitemoney for the entertainment purpose, Hazel Oyeye Onou won the 6th season of Big Brother Naija after polling 47% of the votes in the final week that concluded on Sunday.
According to the show’s host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, this edition of the BBNaija franchise “will go down in history as the most successful iteration yet, having recorded over a billion votes, an unprecedented number of auditions and broken social media engagement records”.
“Despite following strict CoVID-19 guidelines, just like last year, the innovative changes to the show and twists helped keep things exciting,” said Obi-Uchendu.
The show, also keenly watched by many Malawians, also had viewers on their toes and constantly trying to figure out Big Brother’s next move and also that its success is particularly remarkable, considering fans didn’t have the usual SMS voting platforms to vote with this year.
The 29-year-old Whitemoney, a creative native of Enugu State, Nigeria beat 25 other housemates to clinch the prize after an intensely competitive 77 days.
And for the first time in the show’s history, the game ended with a top-6 instead of a top-5 that also saw Liquorose becoming the last woman standing in the competition and the first runner up with 29.99% of the votes.
Pere came in third place after polling 14.7% with Cross gathering only 6.44% to come 4th. Angel and Emmanuel finished 5th and 6th with 5.37% and 3.43% respectively.
Whitemoney joins Katung, Efe, Miracle, Mercy and Laycon in the highly coveted list of BBNaija winners and like the previous winners, the host Obi-Uchendu said the winner “will no doubt leverage the opportunity the BBNaija platform has offered him to push his career”.
The grand finale, which aired live on DStv 198 and GOtv 29 at 7 pm, featured live performances by Nigerian superstars Made Kuti, Avala and Laycon.
A highlight of the night was a surprise performance by Lojay and Ajebo Hustlers with renditions of hit songs ‘Monalisa’ and ‘Pronto’.

Mother’s Day has been traditionally celebrated in Malawi in October since time immemorial and in the past it was enjoyed at a special mass gathering at the national stadiums graced by former President, late Dr. Hastings Kamuzu Banda.
The rest of the citizenry joined the celebration tradition on the same day or thereafter, by visiting their parents with various gifts — a heritage which is still kept to date.
Thus MultiChoice’s choice opting for a bit of a change this year to celebrate their journey that began 25 years ago and serviced many mothers whose children inherited the tradition of registering for the first-ever pay TV business in Malawi.
The company started as a joint venture between Raise Limited a Malawian owned firm, and MultiChoice Africa Holdings and as the business continued to grow and expand it resulted in the launch of GOtv in 2013, which enriched Malawians’ lives through entertaining, educating and financially empowering communities through Sankha Wekha registration agents.
In the last 25 years, the business has made tremendous strides and invested in various initiatives that have further allowed it to continue providing Malawians with solutions that are aimed at optimising customer touchpoints, while enhancing and simplifying how customers interact with their products and services.
