Moments & strategy in the House
Bright officially entered the Big Brother Naija Season 10 (“10 Over 10”) house on July 27, 2025, making a memorable debut as the third male housemate.
Describing himself as “handsome with brains,” Bright emphasised his strategic thinking, emotional intelligence, and competitive spirit, especially around tasks and the party atmosphere in the house. He even made it to the final stage of the Head of House challenge in Week 1, though he ultimately lost to Jason Jae.
Morgan’s Conflicts & Controversies
-
A verbal fight started when Kayikunmi called Bright a “b*tch.” Bright instantly lost his cool, threatening to “scatter your face” and saying he would accept a strike to break Kayikunmi’s head. Other housemates quickly intervened, and Biggie called Bright to the Diary Room to de-escalate the situation.
-
In a tense confrontation involving Faith and Kuture, Bright roughly pushed Faith. During the incident, Faith had taken a communal lighter, which sparked conflict. Bright threatened violence against Faith and this led to a disciplinary action of “Double strike” for inappropriate conduct. This means one more strike would result in automatic disqualification of Bright from the game.
Bright Morgan remains a compelling figure in the BBNaija season 10, balancing strategic gameplay, emotional resilience, and real-life connectivity, all under intense scrutiny and fierce competition.
