Dede and Joanna, the BBNaija season 10 housemates, have been fake-evicted from the reality show in a new twist.
On Monday, the red telephone – one of the new twists introduced this season – rang, and as the rule states, the nearest housemate to it should pick it.
Dede picked up the phone, and Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the host, told her to select another housemate for a surprise. She chose Joanna.
Ebuka then told the two housemates to leave the house as they had been automatically evicted from the show.

However, the pair were put in a secret room where they would spend the entire week.
And Africa? GASPED! 😱 Dede and Joanna have been asked to leave Biggie’s House effective immediately. ⚠️ Agent Ebuka’s cold message came through the Red Telephone ☎️ after Dede picked Joanna for a “surprise.” Instead, it triggered marching orders for both.
