Drama unfolded during the Big Brother Naija Season 10 second launch on Sunday night when housemate Dede openly rejected fellow contestant Jason Jae's request for a hug, creating an awkward moment that caught viewers' attention.
The incident occurred shortly after Jason Jae entered the house and was exchanging pleasantries with other housemates. When he approached Dede with outstretched arms asking, "Can I give you a hug, please?" she responded with a firm "No," as other housemates watched the interaction.
Despite the rejection, Dede did accept a handshake from Jason when he extended his hand following the awkward moment. The interaction has sparked conversations among viewers about boundaries and first impressions in the BBNaija house.
Dede had previously revealed to her housemates that she is currently in a happy relationship outside the house, which might explain her reluctance to engage in physical contact with male contestants.
In another revelation about herself, Dede had earlier described herself as "polygamous in nature," adding another layer to her personality that viewers are beginning to discover as the show progresses.
This season of Big Brother Naija, dubbed the "10/10" edition, has already seen several interesting personalities emerge, including Danboskid who stated he prefers women to approach him first, and Thelma who declared she joined the reality show to "shake bumbum" rather than find a relationship.
Another housemate, Imisi, shared her emotional story of losing her 4-month-old child due to a toxic relationship, while Ivatar surprised many by revealing she is 44 years old.
