Ilebaye wins BBNaija: All Stars!
After 10 weeks of drama and premium entertainment from 24 Housemates across six BBNaija seasons, the Gen Z baddie Ilebaye emerged winner of the BBNaija: All Stars season.
Despite having a rough time in the All Stars house including receiving a double-strike, Ilebaye beat finalists Adekunle, Cee-C, Cross, Pere, and Mercy to grab the 120 million naira prize.
Purr!
Fellow housemate and winner of the Pepper Dem season, Mercy Eke emerged as first runner-up while Cee-C came in 2nd position. Next came Adekunle, then Pere, while Cross came in 6th.
Out on stage before Ilebaye was declared winner of the season, she shared that she was very surprised to make it to the Top 2, adding that her survival during the show was based on God. When asked what was next for her, Ilebaye replied that she was going to build her "Gen-Z baddie" empire.
Ebuka also asked Mercy Eke what was going on between herself and Pere, to which she replied that Pere is her "very good friend."
"Pere na my gee!"
Ilebaye walks away with 120 million naira cash, a weekend getaway for two courtesy of Travelbeta, a brand-new Innoson car, Tecno mobile phone, Nexus household appliances, a year's supply of Pepsi, Arla dairy products, Oriflame products, Titus sardines, Hawaii soaps, WAW detergent, packs of Munchit and Lush hair.
