Koyinsola Sanusi, better known as Koyin from Big Brother Naija Season 10, returned home to Lagos on December 23, 2025. The 22-year-old model finished third in the show that ended back in October. Fans turned out in big numbers to celebrate him.
The event took place on Lagos Island. Streets filled with supporters, many calling themselves Koyinators. They cheered as Koyin arrived. People handed out hampers filled with rice, juices, and bottles of Guinness. The beer brand sponsored parts of the day, putting up stands and signs around the area.
Family members waited for him too. Videos online show emotional moments. Koyin knelt in traditional prostration to greet elders. There were prayers said out loud. Groups broke into dances right there on the street. The energy stayed high. Things moved to a nearby club later for an after-party.
Koyin spent time with everyone. He unboxed gifts from fans. Some were wrapped packages. Others included handwritten letters. He read a few aloud and thanked people. One clip shows him smiling wide while holding up items.
Right after, he shared a new ad on social media. It was for Oraimo smartwatches. Koyin posed with the product and announced giveaways for fans. Several former housemates showed up as well. His close friend from the house, Dede, joined for a small reunion. They hugged and took photos together.
Koyin started the season strong. He was one of the first male housemates introduced. At just 22, he brought style and confidence. Viewers liked his calm way of handling drama. He made it all the way to the top three. Imisi won the grand prize, with Dede as runner-up. Koyin came in third but built a solid fan base.
Since the finale, he has picked up brand deals. Guinness is one of them. Others include GOtv and betting companies. His Instagram followers keep growing. He posts about fashion and daily life.
The homecoming felt personal. Not too many celebrities around. Just family, loyal fans, and a few housemates. Koyin has talked before about staying grounded. This day showed that. People say he looked happy the whole time.
Lagos traffic probably got worse that afternoon. But no one seemed to mind. Music played from speakers. Drums joined in at points. Kids ran around with signs.
Events like this happen often after Big Brother Naija. Winners and top finalists get similar welcomes. For Koyin, it came a couple of months later. Maybe timed for the holidays. December brings more people out in Lagos anyway.
He grew up partly in Ogun State but has ties to Lagos. Fans from both places came. Some travelled in just for the day. Koyin posted thanks online afterward. Short message. He said he felt loved. Promised more content soon.
The celebration wrapped up late. Club lights took over from street cheers. A good way to close the year for the young star. His BBNaija run put him on the map. Now he looks ready for the next steps.
