Tonight’s Big Brother Naija eviction show had Ebuka Obi-Uchendu stepping out in a look that was more than just fashion — it was a statement. He paid homage to Northern music legend and hip-hop trailblazer Zaaki Azzay, whose influence has stretched from the early ‘90s into today. From his first hit in 1993 to his bold style and outspoken presence, Zaaki has always stood out, and Ebuka’s tribute tonight brought that legacy into the spotlight.
His outfit was sharp, deliberate, and layered with meaning. A tailored black blazer rested on a patterned button-up shirt, its white details spreading across the chest and sleeves like intricate art. Complementing this was a pair of black-and-white striped wide-leg trousers, the kind that instantly command attention. A matching cap tied the look back to Zaaki’s signature vibe, while dark sunglasses and a splash of colour on his wrist balanced tradition with modern flair. The glowing LED ring light he carried gave the fit an unexpected twist — practical yet symbolic.
Week after week, Ebuka’s eviction night appearances have doubled as cultural storytelling, borrowing from icons in music, film, and even politics. This latest nod to Zaaki not only celebrated a pioneer but also reminded viewers of how fashion can keep history alive while sparking new conversations.
But with all the elegance on stage, the real tension lingers: who leaves the house tonight? Which housemates will face Ebuka’s probing questions before making that final walk out? The drama hangs heavy, and once again, Ebuka has set the perfect stage for whatever twist the night holds.
