Sonia Amako, popularly known as Big Soso, has become the subject of online ridicule following her eviction from the Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) Season 10 house on Sunday, September 7, 2025. The 28-year-old lawyer and chef from Kaduna State, evicted alongside housemates Ivatar and Doris during a dramatic triple exit, faced mockery over comments she made about her faith and spiritual visions during her time on the show, with netizens joking, “Na to open church branch be next.”
Big Soso, who entered the house aiming to represent Northern Nigeria and inspire young women, was a standout for her vibrant energy and culinary skills. However, her frequent references to spiritual visions and her faith, including claims of divine guidance in the house, drew mixed reactions. Some fans admired her authenticity, while others found her statements controversial, leading to social media taunts post-eviction. A trending post on X read, “Big Soso don see vision comot house, na to open church branch be next,” mocking her spiritual assertions. Another user quipped, “Her visions didn’t see this eviction coming o!”
During her exit interview with host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Big Soso remained upbeat, joking about gaining weight from “chop-chop” in the house and expressing satisfaction with her experience. She highlighted her role as a morale booster, notably for encouraging housemate Rooboy with the viral phrase, “You’re stronger than you think.” Despite her positive demeanor, online reactions focused heavily on her faith-based comments, with some questioning their sincerity. One X user remarked, “All that vision talk, yet she couldn’t see her own eviction. Prophetess of Kaduna!”
Big Soso’s journey was not without drama. She previously apologized to housemate Dede for calling her “a very dirty thing” and a flirt during a heated altercation, and faced accusations of age-shaming from housemate Faith, who called her “old” and claimed she followed boys around, a remark she found insulting. Her self-proclaimed “Mama Soso” persona, earned through her motherly conduct, also became a point of discussion, with fans split between praising her maturity and mocking her spiritual claims.
The eviction, driven by low public votes (Big Soso polled 1.93%), reduced the number of contestants to 19, with Kaybobo named the Most Influential Player of the Week, earning immunity. As Big Soso exits the BBNaija stage, the online banter continues, with some defending her authenticity and others using her eviction to fuel memes about her “visions.” Her next steps remain unclear, but her time in the house has left a lasting impression, for better or worse, in Nigeria’s pop culture conversation.
