BBNaija Season 11 begins airing after organisers unveil the first group of contestants competing in the show’s 2026 edition. Multiple outlets report that the premiere takes place on Sunday evening, with host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu introducing the initial set of housemates during the launch. The organisers present the contestants as participants in the reality show’s ongoing competition inside the Big Brother house.
The reports describe the Season 11 launch as the official start of the new season and highlight that the contestants are vying for the grand prize. One outlet states that the prize is a record-breaking N160 million. The “full list” format in the coverage indicates that the media releases and/or during-launch announcements include the names of the housemates being introduced first.
Across sources, the common points are that BBNaija Season 11 officially starts on Sunday, the first batch of housemates is unveiled by the show’s organisers, and Ebuka Obi-Uchendu appears as host during the premiere. The outlets do not add differing substantive claims beyond the shared details of the launch and prize announcement.
