Big Brother Naija Season 10 winner, Opeyemi Ayanwale, popularly known as Imisi, has revealed that her victory in the recently concluded reality show came as a surprise to her.
In an interview with Arise TV, Imisi said she was not expecting to win and was not even properly dressed for the finale when she stepped on stage on Sunday night.
“Winning the reality show was shocking to me. Sincerely, I was not expecting to win,” she said.
She also spoke about dealing with anxiety moments before the announcement was made.
“Before I got on the show, I was tensed just hearing the crowd chant my name. I was shocked when I was announced the winner. I wore crocs to the stage because I am not comfortable in heels. I did not even plan for the live show,” she added.
Imisi defeated her closest rival, Dede, by a wide margin to emerge as the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 10.
She received a grand prize of ₦150 million, which includes ₦80 million in cash and a brand-new Innoson SUV, during the prize presentation ceremony held on Tuesday.
