Big Brother Naija Pays Tribute to Late Former Contestants
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

In a heartfelt moment on Monday, the current housemates of Big Brother Naija honoured the memories of three former contestants who have passed away: Francisca Owumi, Joseph Ada, and Rico Swavey.

During the tribute, images of the late stars were displayed on the screens inside the house, and the housemates observed a minute of silence to commemorate their contributions to the reality show.

Francisca Owumi, the runner-up of the inaugural 2006 season, was remembered for her infectious energy, love for dance, and free-spirited personality. She passed away in 2024 after battling a long-term illness, leaving fans and fellow housemates in mourning.

Joseph “Joe” Ada, another participant from the first season, was celebrated for his presence and impact on the show. He tragically passed in May 2023 due to health complications, and the tribute highlighted the enduring mark he left on Big Brother Naija’s early legacy.

Rico Swavey, born Patrick Fakoya, rose to fame during the 2018 Double Wahala season. He was fondly remembered for his creativity, calm demeanor, and memorable moments on the show. Rico’s life was cut short in a fatal car accident in 2022, a loss that resonated deeply with fans and the Big Brother community.

The tribute served as a poignant reminder of the influence these former housemates had, not only within the Big Brother Naija house but also on the show’s wider audience. It reinforced the show’s ongoing connection to its alumni and the legacy of those who helped shape the reality series into the phenomenon it is today.
