Twenty-three-year-old singer KellyRae has emerged as the winner of the Big Brother Naija ‘No Loose Guard’ season, claiming a grand prize of N100 million in cash and a brand-new SUV, among other rewards.
KellyRae, who is married to evicted housemate Kassia, edged out Wanni in the finale.
The live show, held in Lagos yesterday, brought together all the ‘No Loose Guard’ housemates, who eagerly awaited the winner’s announcement.
The evening began with the eviction of Sooj, followed by Anita and Ocee, one of the Mbadiwe twins. Nelly and Victoria were also evicted, with Victoria expressing surprise at her longevity in the competition.
The final showdown was between KellyRae and Wanni, after Onyeka’s eviction. KellyRae secured 33.95% of the votes, surpassing Wanni.
Known off-screen as Kingsley Sule, KellyRae hails from Delta State and is a professional singer with an EP. His music career debuted in October 2020 with the release of “Success,” featuring Nigerian artists Erigga and Graham D.
KellyRae has released several singles and delivered notable performances. He married his wife, Kassia, earlier this year, after a nine-year courtship.
The show, which started with 28 housemates, saw 20 contestants evicted over nine weeks. This season’s innovative twist, featuring paired contestants, added excitement to the competition.
KellyRae’s win marks the culmination of an exciting season, and his music career is expected to soar to new heights.
