Every BBNaija finale has its highlights, but tonight, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu didn’t just host, he ruled the stage. While the audience waited to see who would take the crown, Ebuka stepped out already wearing one, closing the season in a look that screamed heritage, power, and pure royalty.
For his second outfit of the night, he channelled the iconic Pete Edochie, the man whose commanding presence and cultural depth have shaped Nigerian film and storytelling. Ebuka’s interpretation of that essence came alive in every detail of his look.
He appeared in a flowing white robe that moved gracefully with every step, layered with a bold leopard-print vest that instantly caught the eye. The vest, featuring a gold-embroidered lion head on the chest, was a symbol of authority and strength, a perfect fit for a man ending a season that’s been all about dominance, drama, and class.
His accessories took things to another level. Sitting on his head was a gold crown lined with deep burgundy velvet, regal yet refined. Around his neck were strings of coral beads in bright shades of pink and orange, the kind worn by noblemen and chiefs in traditional settings. In his hand, a black-and-gold walking stick completed the ensemble, adding that final touch of majesty.
But Ebuka being Ebuka, he added a little twist, blue-tinted aviator sunglasses that brought a modern edge to the otherwise cultural fit. It was the perfect balance between heritage and style, old-school influence and new-age flair.
According to him, the outfit was inspired by the one and only Pete Edochie, the legendary actor known for his wisdom, strength, and royal charisma. It wasn’t just fashion for Ebuka; it was storytelling through style, a moment that blended nostalgia with sophistication.
With this look, Ebuka didn’t just close the BBNaija 10/10 finale, he signed off like a king who knows his throne is secure.
