After an intense 70-day journey, Kellyrae has emerged victorious as the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 9, dubbed “No Loose Guard”. The grand finale, which took place on October 6, 2024, was a thrilling conclusion to a season that began on July 28, 2024.

The finale featured eight housemates vying for the top spot: Kellyrae, Wanni, Victoria, Onyeka, Ozee, Sooj, Nelly, and Anita. As the night progressed, tensions mounted with each eviction:
