Martins Iyeh and Ijeoma “Mercedes” Emi have become the first housemates to leave the Big Brother Naija Season 11 house after they were evicted during Sunday night’s live show.
Martins, 30, was announced as the first housemate to be evicted, followed by Mercedes, 26, in the first double eviction of the “Show Ya Sef” season.
The eviction was determined by viewers’ votes, with the pair recording the lowest percentages among the three housemates at the bottom of the week’s voting.
Martins secured 1.63 per cent of the votes, while Mercedes polled 2.29 per cent. Their eviction saved Keivo, who received 2.92 per cent of the votes.
The eviction followed a week of twists, nominations and strategic manoeuvring that placed a large number of housemates up for public voting.
The 11th season of the reality show premiered on July 26, with 24 housemates competing for a ₦160 million prize package comprising ₦100 million in cash and an SUV.
The season, hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, carries the theme “Show Ya Sef” and the tagline, “Everything Is For The Taking.”
