Disqualified: What happened between Faith and Sultana

Faith Adewale, a 25-year-old medical doctor from Osun State was disqualified from Big Brother Naija Season 10 on Day 68 of the show, just two days before the grand finale.

The disqualification was as a result of his disagreement with fellow top 10 finalist Sultana Auduson.

So let’s talk about what really happened between Faith and Sultana during the group task. Because it wasn’t just a fight over a basket, it was a clash of presence, power, timing, ego, and perception.

The setup is simple: the house was given a group task. Some of the housemates, including Faith, got right to work. They were already contributing when Sultana, who had earlier agreed to participate, chose instead to play pool while the others were building. That choice alone matters. In group settings, timing communicates priority. When people see you disengage while they’re working, it signals detachment. When you show up late and try to take over, it creates tension, whether intentional or not.

Eventually, Sultana decided to join in. But as soon as she did, the atmosphere shifted. Faith called her out, likely frustrated: “We’ve been waiting for you, now you’re just coming?” Sultana fired back. The words weren’t kind. What started as passive tension quickly evolved into a verbal standoff. Now it wasn’t just about helping with the task, it became about pride, ego, and social positioning.

Then came the flashpoint: Sultana picked up the basket, a key element of the task. Faith told her to drop it. She refused. He physically stepped in front of her. She still tried to walk away. And just like that, they both started dragging the basket, locked in a tug-of-war that had nothing to do with the task itself anymore.

At this point, the basket wasn’t just an object, it was a symbol of control.

For Faith, the basket represented order. He had been working. He wasn’t going to let someone who hadn’t lifted a finger now act like a team lead.

For Sultana, it may have been about reclaiming space. About being seen. About not appearing irrelevant. Her instinct was to grab the one thing that gave her immediate visibility, regardless of timing.

The struggle intensified. Faith yanked the basket fiercely, and Sultana fell. That was the breaking point. It had gone from disagreement to physical conflict. But even that didn’t end it.

Sultana came back and grabbed the basket again. Faith followed and took it back from her again.

This wasn’t about contribution anymore, it was about dominance. Two people caught in a psychological feedback loop, neither willing to lose ground. The basket, once a neutral prop, had become the flag of victory in a war of ego.

Now here’s the truth, both were wrong, but not equally.

Yes, Faith crossed a line when he yanked the basket so fiercely it caused Sultana to fall. That moment reflects emotional intensity, a failure to de-escalate, and reactive behavior under pressure. He let his frustration dictate his actions, and that’s not excusable.

But Faith’s reaction was not unprovoked.

Sultana triggered the disruption by arriving late, ignoring the natural order of work already in place, and trying to take charge without reading the energy in the room. She didn’t blend in, she tried to control. When asked to stop, she didn’t. And even after falling, she returned to escalate again. That shows emotional impulsivity, a need to win, and an inability to step back, even after things had gotten physical.

So no, this wasn’t a case of man vs. woman. It was a case of disruption vs. order. One person had already been building. The other showed up late and tried to take the lead.

And when that didn’t go down well, things spiraled.

From a psychological standpoint, Sultana was wrong first. Faith was wrong next. But not equally. Sultana lit the match. Faith threw it into the basket.
