Multichoice Nigeria has announced N100 million as the winner prize for the 2024 edition of the Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) reality TV show.
Busola Tejumola, executive head of content and West Africa channels at MultiChoice, also disclosed that the show will premiere on Sunday, July 28.
In a press briefing on Tuesday, Tejumola said the show’s premiere will air on all Africa Magic channels at 7 pm WAT.
The organisers said the show’s winner will go home with a grand prize of N100 million and a brand new SUV car.
“After 71 days of game playing, on the 6th of October, 2024, a grand total of N100 million worth of cash and a brand new SUV will be won,” she said.
“Our grand prize this year is worth N10o million.”
The N100 million is N20 million short of the winner prize for the 2023 edition. Ilebaye Odiniya won the all-stars (8th) season in October 2023 and claimed the N120 million grand prize.
Auditions for the ninth season began on March 27 and ended on May 4.
BBNaija organisers earlier announced that this year’s season promises “double drama, relationships, and huge competition”.
“With new twists and unknown housemates ready to become your new faves, this season promises to be one for the books,” they added.
“Expect shocking twists, explosive drama, and alliances that will keep you guessing.”
Last year’s season featured 20 former housemates — from the show’s inception in 2006 through its seventh edition in 2022.
