đź’° Truth Behind the ₦37 Million Tax Rumor: Is BBNaija Season 10 Winner Imisi Really Paying That Much?
Since her stunning victory on Big Brother Naija Season 10, Imisi has become the talk of Nigeria — but not just for her ₦150 million grand prize.
Social media has been buzzing with claims that the reality star may have to pay ₦37 million in taxes from her winnings. So, what’s really going on?
According to circulating reports, Imisi’s win supposedly falls under Nigeria’s new tax reform, which imposes a 25% tax rate on high earnings. However, reliable sources have clarified that the new tax law will not take effect until January 2026, meaning Imisi’s 2025 winnings are not affected by the rule.
In simple terms: Imisi keeps her full ₦150 million prize, at least for now.
Still, the conversation has sparked serious debate online. Should reality TV winners be taxed heavily like other income earners? Or should their prizes remain tax-free as incentives for entertainment and creativity?
Fans and financial analysts are already weighing in, with opinions split between those who support fair taxation and those who say it could “kill the fun” of big shows like Big Brother Naija.
Whatever side you’re on, one thing’s for sure — Imisi’s victory continues to stir nationwide conversation long after the show ended.
