The race to the grand finale of Big Brother Naija Season 10 has intensified dramatically, with Mensan and Sultana officially claiming their highly coveted spots as the inaugural finalists of the season. Their journeys to this pivotal stage underscore their strategic prowess and unwavering determination within the competitive BBNaija House, setting the tone for an electrifying conclusion.

Mensan was the first housemate to secure his place in the finale, earning the prestigious title of “Most Influential Player of the Week.” This significant recognition granted him a direct and unassailable pass into the final stage of the competition, a testament to his consistent dominance in various tasks and his strong, undeniable presence throughout his time in the House. His ability to navigate the challenges and garner influence clearly set him apart, cementing his position among the season's elite.

Sultana, on the other hand, clinched her finalist status by emerging victorious as the new Head of House (HoH) for Week 9. Her triumph in the rigorous HoH Challenger game was hard-fought, as she went head-to-head against formidable housemates including Koyin, Mide, and Faith. With exceptional grit and unwavering focus, Sultana prevailed, solidifying her reputation as one of the season’s most resilient and strategically astute competitors.

This win not only bestowed upon her the Week 9 crown but also, more crucially, the golden ticket directly into the finale – the ultimate aspiration for every housemate since Day 1. As per tradition, Sultana also enjoyed the privilege of picking a guest for the week, selecting Isabella, which ensured both ladies exclusive access to the luxurious HoH lounge and all the associated privileges.

Sultana's achievement marks a significant milestone in Big Brother Naija Season 10, as she becomes the third female housemate this season to clinch the coveted HoH title, following in the successful footsteps of Zita and Thelma Lawson. Doris had also earlier stepped in as an interim Head of House, highlighting a season of strong female leadership and diverse strategic play.
