A heated argument between Zita and Rooboy, contestants on Big Brother Naija Season 10, turned physical on Thursday night after a task, which might have resulted in the housemates’ eviction.
The clash began when Zita accused Rooboy of sabotaging Team Pineapple’s performance during Kaybobo’s turn.

Rooboy insisted he had already apologised to the team, but Zita rejected this, claiming he never apologised to her personally.
As tensions escalated, they exchanged insults. Zita shouted, “Don’t piss me off, Rooboy,” and moments later threw a plate of Indomie noodles at him. In retaliation, Rooboy struck her, shocking the other housemates.

The incident is now under review by the show’s organisers, who could impose penalties including strikes, suspensions, or disqualification. Big Brother Naija rules prohibit physical violence or behaviour that endangers contestants.
“The sponsored task turned up the heat for Rooboy and Zita, and it ended badly with things getting physical,” Biggie said.
Apology
Later, by Friday morning, Zita and Rooboy revisited the fiery moment, probably to settle scores. Rooboy said he’s moved on, but admitted he’s wary of friendships that ignite such strong reactions. He said they can easily spiral into bigger drama.
Meanwhile, after the altercation, Zita reportedly sought forgiveness from Rooboy, who acknowledged the apology. However, many fans and observers remain divided on whether the gesture is sufficient to end the matter.
This season of BBNaija kicked off on 27 July, with a two-day launch event with 29 female and male housemates.
In previous weeks of the reality show, 16 housemates were evicted, including Sabrina, who exited the show due to medical concerns.

Other housemates who have been evicted are Kayikunmi, Otega, Ibifubara, Danboskid, Victory, Gigi Jasmine, Big Soso, Ivatar, Doris, Tracy, Denari, Thelma Lawson, Bright Morgan, Kuture, and Joanna.
In Week 9, HoH, Sultana, the Most Influential Player of the Week, Mensan and Kaybobo had proceeded to the final phase of the show.
The remaining 10 13 housemates in the house will have to depend on their fans’ votes and other twists that might occur on the show to secure a place for themselves in the final.
The remaining 13 housemates will wrestle for the record N140 million grand prize, against the N150 million earlier advertised, because of Kaybobo’s uneventful qualification to the final phase.
