Evicted Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemate Oluwakayikunmi “Kayikunmi” Ajibade has peeled back the curtain on one of the show’s most primal battles: the scramble for snacks in the “10/10” house. In a raw, viral video clip shared by entertainment outlet Metro Naija, the 29-year-old fitness entrepreneur from Ogun State revealed a shocking behind-the-scenes truth: “Not all housemates ate before coming on the show,” explaining it as the root of the heated food feuds that had viewers clutching their remotes.
The confession, delivered with Kayikunmi’s trademark straight-shooter vibe, clocks in at just under 30 seconds but packs a punch, racking up over 26,000 views, 270 likes, and a flurry of replies on X since its Friday drop. Fans had long speculated about the kitchen clashes during his stint—from territorial tiffs over protein shakes to full-blown diary room rants about portion policing—but Kayikunmi’s take frames it as survival mode from the jump. “Some of us came in on empty stomachs, straight from auditions or last-minute rushes. Hunger no dey play; na why small food turn war,” he elaborated in the clip, his tone a mix of humor and hindsight.
Kayikunmi’s revelation ties into the high-stakes pressure of BBNaija entry, where contestants often endure grueling selection processes—think multi-day camps, psychological evals, and zero guarantees—leaving little room for a full plate. His own house arc, marked by disciplined workouts and strategic solitude (as he spilled in prior chats about dodging “ships” with Isabella), amplified the irony: The guy preaching fitness was fighting for fuel like everyone else. Evicted on August 17 alongside Otega Eritomi as the third pair out, Kayikunmi’s post-show candor has fans revisiting clips of those infamous fridge raids, with one X user joking, “Kayikunmi just explained why BBNaija kitchen scenes hotter than the romance ones 😂 #HungerGames.”
The buzz extends to broader chats about the show’s realities: Biggie’s pantry is stocked, but with 26 initial housemates (now down to 23 as the finale looms), portions stretch thin under marathon days and midnight munchies. Past seasons echo the sentiment—remember Tega’s 2021 snack scandals?—but Kayikunmi’s quip adds a fresh layer, humanizing the glamour with a dash of raw need. “It’s not just strategy; sometimes it’s stomach talking,” he added, earning nods from alums like Adekunle, who recently dished on house intimacies.
As Season 10 sizzles toward Sunday evictions, with frontrunners like Jason Jae and Imisi in the crosshairs for the ₦150 million pot, Kayikunmi’s food-for-thought has fans side-eyeing their own pre-binge routines. Lesson learned: Next time you skip breakfast, blame it on Big Brother vibes.
