Kellyrae has been crowned the winner of 2024 Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) season 9, dubbed the ‘No Loose Guard’ edition.
Kellyrae, the first married contestant to win the BBNaija show, narrowly beat Wanni, who finished in second place, and Onyeka, who came third.
As the winner, Kellyrae takes home a N60 million cash prize along with a new car valued at N40 million, bringing his total winnings to N100 million.
The show’s host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, announced Kellyrae as the winner on Sunday, marking the 71st day of the competition.
Sunday’s live finale saw Sooj being the first to be evicted, followed by Anita, Ozee, Nelly, Victoria, Onyeka, and finally Wanni.
After more than 70 days of intense competition filled with emotional moments and memorable experiences, Kellyrae walked away with the N100 million grand prize, a new SUV, and other exciting rewards.
This season, which kicked off on July 28, introduced a twist that shook things up—28 housemates were split into 14 pairs, making it one of the most thrilling editions yet.
Kellyrae entered the house with his wife, Kassia, as the “Doublekay” duo.
He now joins the ranks of past BBNaija winners like Katung Adwuak, Efe, Miracle, Laycon, Whitemoney, Phyna, and last year’s winner, Ilebaye.
KanyiDaily recalls that Ilebaye Odinaya won the 2023 BBNaija All Stars show, after weeks of intense competition, surpassing strong contenders like Mercy Eke, Ceec, Adekunle, Pere Egbi, and Cross Okonkwo.
