BBNaija’s Sabrina Claims She Would Have Been a Finalist if Not for Health-Forced Exit

Former Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemate, Sabrina Idukpaye, has expressed confidence that she would have made it to the finals had her journey on the show not been cut short by health concerns.

Speaking in a recent interview with The Beat FM, Sabrina stated that being a finalist was “guaranteed” for her.

“I would have been a finalist and that is guaranteed. I had always said it every time in my diary sessions,” she said.

Sabrina was forced to leave the reality show after being hospitalized. Although doctors later declared her medically fit, Big Brother denied her re-entry into the house. According to her, she received the news while still in the hospital, waiting for clearance to return.

Despite the setback, the reality star expressed gratitude to MultiChoice and the Big Brother franchise for the platform.

“Regardless of how it ended, I’m thankful for the opportunity to be part of the show,” she added.

Opinion:
Sabrina’s revelation sheds light on one of the biggest what-ifs of BBNaija Season 10. Reality shows thrive on unpredictability, yet her exit reminds us that behind the cameras are real people whose dreams can be reshaped by circumstances beyond their control.

Her confidence in her chances isn’t unfounded — after all, fans had begun to warm up to her personality, and her diary sessions hinted at a contestant who understood both the game and the audience. Whether or not she truly would have made it to the finals, we’ll never know.

But one thing stands out: Sabrina’s optimism and gratitude even after such a crushing disappointment is inspiring. In a world where many would focus only on “what could have been,” she’s chosen to celebrate “what was.” That resilience is perhaps the true win — one that transcends BBNaija’s walls.
