    Biggie, the coordinator of the show, engaged all the housemates in a game which tested their endurance abilities to the highest levels.

    The nine housemates left were required to balance in one particular position on a very dicey platform for a total of three hours.

    Ilebaye won with a record of over two hours standing on the platform as she replaced Cross as HOH for the ninth week.

    As HOH, she is immune from eviction this week and also secures a place in the finale. Ilebaye picked Mercy, Ceece, Venita and Angel as her BFF, who will share the luxury HOH lounge with her.

    The housemates are competing for the grand prize of N120 million.

    Ikechukwu Sunday Okonkwo, popularly known as  Cross,  presently featuring in the Big Brother Naija All Stars reality show, has emerged as the first finalist this season and now has his eyes fixed on the grand prize.

    Meanwhile, Biggie has announced that Moneypoint coins are no longer valid in the House.

    Consequently, housemates who have unused coins would not be able to make purchases with them henceforth.
