BBNaija: Martins becomes first housemate to be evicted

Martins Iyeh, a 30-year-old visual storyteller and model from Kogi State, has been evicted from the Big Brother Naija Season 11 reality show. He became the first housemate to leave the competition after spending only two weeks in the house. According to Daily Post Nigeria, his eviction was announced by host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu during Sunday's live show.

The season, themed "Everything Is For The Taking" and also known as "Show Ya Sef", has a record N160m prize package at stake, including N100m cash and an SUV. Martins was among the 25 contestants introduced when the 11th season of the reality show premiered, although TheCable reports that two housemates, Martins and Mercedes, were evicted.

At the start of his BBNaija journey, Martins told viewers that he was primarily interested in having fun and making the most of his time in the house. His departure means there are now 23 or 24 contestants left on the reality show.
