In a heartfelt gesture that’s captured social media buzz, Afrobeats star Adekunle Gold surprised Big Brother Naija Season 10 winner Imisi with a brand‑new iPhone 17 Pro Max.
The gift comes shortly after Imisi’s crowning as champion on October 5, 2025.
The presentation took place during a private meet‑and‑greet session, where cameras captured her beaming as she unwrapped the luxurious smartphone.
A Promise Fulfilled
Earlier during the airing of BBNaija, Adekunle Gold had publicly expressed support for Imisi (and fellow housemate Mensan).
In an Instagram Live session, he noticed the poor quality of her phone camera and casually asked if she’d like an upgrade — promising to surprise her afterward.
True to his word, the phone was handed over days after the finale. Imisi later shared snippets of the moment on her Snapchat, describing it as a “sweet surprise.”
Price Tag & Reaction
In Nigeria’s retail space, the iPhone 17 Pro Max currently retails between ₦2,750,000 and ₦3,795,000, depending on storage configurations.
As expected, the announcement has set social media ablaze. Fans praised the singer’s generosity, calling the gesture thoughtful and affirming in an industry often marked by competition. Many remarked that moments like this reinforce camaraderie and mentorship in entertainment circles.
