Big Brother Naija Season 10 winner, Imisi, revealed in a post-show interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu that she broke up with her boyfriend, Hakeem, just weeks before the show’s audition.

Describing the split as “hectic,” she said the relationship had influenced her dressing and style, as she often dressed the way he liked.

“The Imisi you saw on social media was not really me. My dressing and style were influenced by my ex, Hakeem, because that’s what he liked. He liked when I wore makeup and frontals, so I did that to please him because he was my safe place. He liked girls who looked girly, and he was the only person I had at the time.

“But we broke up on April 4, before I went for the audition in May. It was really a hectic breakup, and I didn’t have the time to heal before the show.”
