Kellyrae Says He Gave Wife Kassia N55 Million From BBNaija Winnings
Big Brother Naija Season 9 winner, Kellyrae, recently shared that he gifted his wife, Kassia, a large sum from his prize winnings.
According to him, he transferred N55 million out of the N60 million he received after winning the reality show.
Kellyrae and Kassia both entered the competition as a duo, famously known as DoubleKay.
However, partway through the show, Biggie decided to unpair all the housemates, leaving them to fend for themselves individually.
Initially, DoubleKay was seen as one of the strongest pairs in the house, with many fans rooting for them to win together.
But after the separation, Kellyrae’s management chose to focus on his solo journey, backing him to go further in the game while Kassia had to navigate her own path.
Their decision stirred reactions among fans, especially when Kellyrae openly expressed his desire to win the N100 million grand prize, even if it meant competing against his wife.
Kellyrae’s win eventually came with a N60 million cash prize along with a brand-new car worth N40 million, making him one of the most celebrated contestants of the season.
During an Instagram live session with his wife on Tuesday, Kellyrae excitedly mentioned that he had already given Kassia the majority of the prize money, saying: “The prize money was N60 million, and I’ve already sent Kassia N55 million to take care of herself.”
However, Kassia quickly denied this, challenging her husband’s claim.
With a laugh, she responded, “To which account did you send the money? Why are you lying? You’re lying to your fans who voted for you.”
Despite her playful confrontation, Kellyrae brushed off the accusation, attributing it to poor network issues and humorously saying, “It’s bad network. My fans won’t drag me.”
Kellyrae’s playful banter with his wife during the live session has kept fans entertained, sparking more curiosity about the dynamics of their relationship post-BBN.
The couple, once viewed as a strong alliance in the house, now faces the real-world attention that comes with the fame and fortune of winning such a popular reality show.
Fans continue to speculate on whether Kellyrae will indeed fulfill his promise or if this playful exchange hints at a different story behind the scenes.
The long-awaited trial in the murder case of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur has reached a major development, with Duane “Keffe D” Davis sentenced to 40 years to life in prison on October 13, 2026.
Davis was convicted of first-degree murder in August 2026 for his role in orchestrating the 1996 killing. Tupac was shot in a drive-by attack in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, and died six days later.
During the sentencing, the judge addressed Davis, rejecting his claims that he had changed his life and moved on from his past. “Mr. Davis, for three years, I’ve heard you say some variation of the same thing to law enforcement, [in interviews], in your book, and it’s something like, ‘Yeah, I was involved in this, but I’m different. I’ve moved on. I got out of Compton. I’m a grandfather now.’ I’m here to tell you that’s not how this works,” the judge said.
She continued “You don’t get to take a man from his family. You don’t get to take his very life, his whole future from him, and just walk away from it. Especially when that man is Tupac Shakur.
“The world never forgot about him and his death, and neither did Las Vegas. It took us 30 years, but at this time, you are going to face justice for what you did on Sept. 7, 1996.”
Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has reflected on how his perception of YouTube movies has changed over the years. The actor recalled that there was a time when he looked down on movies released on YouTube.
However, he now appreciates the opportunities they have provided for his career and joked that he might have struggled financially if he had continued to dismiss them.
Sharing his thoughts in a post on X, Egbuson wrote “Can’t believe I was looking down on YouTube movies at some point. Hunger go don kpai me by now.”
Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has advised young people who are still living with their parents not to rush into moving out because of peer pressure.
The singer encouraged young people to focus on their personal circumstances rather than compare their lives with those of others. He noted that there is no need to leave their parents’ homes simply because they want to feel independent.
Sharing his advice, Dakolo said “No hurry, leave your papa house because of peer pressure. Forget all that, ‘I don’t have my freedom here.’”
