BBNaija 2026 Week 1 Vote Result, Percentage & Eviction

The results of the Big Brother Naija Season 11 Week 1 public vote are finally here as viewers across Nigeria voted for the two housemates they wanted to become The Gambit of the season.

Unlike previous seasons, Week One featured fake nominations, meaning no housemate was at risk of immediate eviction. Instead, Big Brother introduced The Gambit, a brand new twist that allows viewers to choose one male and one female housemate for a special role that guarantees them a place in the grand finale, although they will not be eligible to compete for the ₦160 million grand prize.

Before revealing the Week One vote results, here is a quick recap of how the nomination process unfolded.

BBNaija 2026 Week 1 Nominations

The first nomination show of Big Brother Naija Season 11 delivered plenty of surprises as all 24 housemates entered the Diary Room to make their first nominations of the season.

Following his victory in the inaugural Head of House Challenge, Chimsom Chuka secured immunity from nominations, making him the only housemate safe before the nomination process began.

Each of the remaining housemates nominated two fellow contestants they wanted to face possible eviction. However, just when everyone expected the final eviction list to be announced, Biggie introduced a major twist that completely changed the game.

Here is everything you need to know about the BBNaija 2026 Week 1 nomination results, the voting breakdown, and The Gambit twist.

Although the housemates completed the full nomination process, Biggie revealed that the nominations were fake, meaning every contestant remains safe from eviction this week.

The announcement stunned both the housemates and viewers, proving once again that Big Brother Naija Season 11 is full of unexpected twists.

The Gambit Twist Explained
