Abi emerged victorious in the latest Head of House challenge after defeating Gerard in the final round. The win marked her second Head of House victory of the season, and she selected Temi Nkem as her Loft mate.
The Head of House challenge featured several stages, including a game that required housemates to move a fish using a fan, a ball-and-hole challenge and a final test involving the transportation of dice. Abi eventually came out on top after progressing through the demanding rounds.
While Abi celebrated her victory, Bells once again found herself at the centre of attention after secretly taking food from the kitchen and hiding it in a bedroom. Her actions came after she expressed frustration with the house and suggested that she could face consequences for her decisions.
The missing sugar soon became a talking point among the housemates, with Keivo and Gerard noticing that supplies had disappeared from the kitchen.
Elsewhere, relationship tensions continued to develop. Bells and Yusuf had an emotional confrontation, with Bells accusing Yusuf of putting her second and failing to show her enough loyalty. Yusuf reminded her of an earlier disagreement, while Bells apologised for calling him a liar but maintained that she felt disrespected.
Yusuf also spent time talking with Abi, with the pair discussing their personal experiences and how other housemates perceive them.
The day also featured a Man Crush Monday task, in which the female housemates selected male housemates to impersonate. The challenge produced several humorous moments as the women dressed and behaved like the men they had chosen.
Meanwhile, conversations about the previous night's evictions continued to dominate discussions in the house. Chimsom Chuka reflected on the departures of Goddessa and Sultex, admitting that he had expected Sultex to remain in the competition much longer.
The biggest twist came during nominations when Biggie cancelled all the saves after accusing the housemates of repeatedly discussing nomination strategies and conspiracies. As a result, only HoH Abi and MIPOW Sheba were declared safe, leaving the remaining housemates vulnerable to eviction.
Biggie also announced another major change to the prize money. Citing the housemates' recent wager loss and repeated rule violations, he revealed that ₦5 million had been deducted from the prize fund and transferred to the MIPOW prize pot.
The housemates later began working on their accountability exercise, with each person required to identify a rule they believed the house should follow and a personal commitment they intended to make going forward.
As Day 36 came to a close, tensions remained high, with housemates also preparing for their next wager presentation and navigating complicated friendships and relationships.
With Abi back in power, Bells once again at the centre of controversy and the prize money taking another major hit, Day 36 has set the stage for another unpredictable week in the Big Brother Naija house.
