After a series of nominations as well as escaping eviction, Phyna beat fellow housemates to the N100 million grand prize.
While one of the housemates was disqualified, twenty-one housemates were evicted with Phyna, Bryann, Adekunle, ChiChi, Daniella, and Bella emerging as the 6 finalists.

However, two years after winning the show, none of the housemates have been able to break the record of Laycon.
