On Monday afternoon, Biggie gathered all the housemates to pay respect to their departed colleagues. Pictures of the late reality stars were displayed on screen, followed by a minute of silence in their honour.

Since its inception, BBNaija has sadly lost three housemates: Francisca Owumi, Joseph Ada, and Rico Swavey.

  • Francisca Owumi – Runner-up of the very first BBNaija season in 2006. Known for her vibrant energy and iconic dance moves, she set the pace for many who followed. She passed away in August 2024 after a brief illness.

  • Joseph “Joe” Ada – Also from the pioneer season in 2006. His quiet strength and unique presence made him unforgettable. He died in May 2023 after battling an illness.

  • Rico Swavey (Patrick Fakoya) – From the “Double Wahala” season in 2018. Beloved for his warm personality and talent, his tragic death in October 2022 after a car accident left fans heartbroken.

The tribute sparked emotional reactions online, with many fans remembering Rico’s gentle nature and Francisca’s dance moves. Some also pointed out that the late Goldie Harvey, who appeared on Big Brother Africa, was not included in the tribute.

Social media was filled with comments such as:

  • “Rico Swavey, keep resting.”

  • “Francisca, the great dancer.”

  • “Rico’s death hit me hard.”
