Rooboy exits Big Brother Naija in night of high drama
Quick Read
A professional hype man with a budding music career, he described himself as "the life of the party," a promise he delivered through electrifying performances and strategic alliances.
The Big Brother Naija Season 10 house erupted in tears on Sunday as Babatunde “Rooboy” Adeyemi, the 27-year-old hype man from Ogun State, became the third housemate evicted in a gripping triple elimination.
Following the exits of Mide Iwasokun and Zita Oloruntola, Rooboy’s departure, announced during the live show, marked the end of a nine-week rollercoaster that solidified his status as the season’s ultimate showman.
Rooboy entered the “10/10” edition on July 26 as one of 29 housemates, armed with infectious energy and a knack for turning mundane moments into viral spectacles.
A professional hype man with a budding music career, he described himself as “the life of the party,” a promise he delivered through electrifying performances and strategic alliances.
His pre-show goal was clear: leverage Biggie’s platform to amplify his brand while showcasing his hustle as a streetwise entertainer.
Rooboy’s highlight reel included leading the house in impromptu dance-offs and delivering iconic Diary Session one-liners that trended weekly, earning him the moniker “Hype King.”
However, Rooboy’s journey was marred by controversy. A week prior, he clashed with Zita in a heated altercation over a group task, culminating in her throwing food at him-an incident that earned both double strikes and put them on thin ice with Big Brother.
The drama, dubbed the “Indomie Incident” by fans, polarized viewers, with some decrying Zita’s aggression and others arguing Rooboy provoked her with sharp jabs.
Social media posts reflected the divide: “Zita poured hot indomie on Rooboy’s face… Zita Must Be Disqualified,” one user raged, while another quipped, “Rooboy’s mouth ran faster than Usain Bolt, no wonder he’s out!” The clash likely swayed public votes, sealing their joint exit alongside Mide in a brutal Sunday night purge.
The triple eviction leaves the house reeling, with survivors like Kola, Dede, Sultana, and Isabella now trending as frontrunners for the October finale.
Rooboy’s absence will be felt, particularly in tasks requiring his signature crowd-pumping energy.
