BBNaija: Keivo Takes Full Responsibility After Disqualification

Former Big Brother Naija Season 11 housemate, Victor Ikpe, popularly known as Keivo, has broken his silence following his disqualification from the reality TV show, accepting responsibility for the physical confrontation that ended his journey.

Keivo, in a statement shared on X, acknowledged that his emotions got the better of him, stressing that physical confrontation is never a solution.

His comments came shortly after Big Brother disqualified him from the “Show Ya Sef” season following a physical altercation with fellow housemate Tram. Big Brother identified Keivo as the perpetrator and announced his immediate removal from the competition.

Keivo Apologises and Promises to Learn

Reflecting on the incident, Keivo said he takes full responsibility for his actions and expressed his intention to learn from the experience.

He also thanked Big Brother, MultiChoice, his family and supporters for their support throughout his time on the show.

The former housemate said the experience would serve as a lesson as he works towards becoming a better person.

Disqualification Comes Days Before Finale

Keivo’s exit came during the final week of the competition, shortly before the scheduled October 4, 2026 finale.

The incident reportedly began with a disagreement between Keivo and Tram over a shirt before the situation escalated into a physical confrontation. Big Brother subsequently intervened and later announced Keivo’s disqualification.

The decision leaves the remaining contestants to compete for the ₦160 million grand prize, with Keivo no longer eligible for the title or prize.

Big Brother Warns Against Violence

During the disciplinary announcement, Big Brother stressed that disagreements and personal grievances do not justify violent conduct.

He reminded the remaining housemates that they are responsible for how they respond to conflicts and urged them to exercise restraint for the remainder of the competition.

Keivo’s acceptance of responsibility has since added another dimension to the controversy surrounding his exit, as viewers continue to discuss the incident and its impact on the final stages of the show.
