Known for his charismatic presence on television and signature fashion statements, Ebuka revealed that he typically avoids birthday celebrations. However, this year proved to be different as the organisers of BBNaija pulled off an elaborate and heartfelt surprise, leaving him visibly moved.
The event, which was both stylish and intimate, brought together a blend of celebrity friends and close associates. Among the guests were Ebuka’s wife, Cynthia Obi-Uchendu, actors Adesua Etomi and Banky W, comedian Basketmouth, actress Bisola Aiyeola, and several past BBNaija housemates — all gathered to honour the celebrated TV host.
Sharing moments from the occasion on social media, Ebuka expressed his surprise and gratitude, writing:
“I almost never celebrate my birthdays. But this year, Multichoice said, ‘Surprise!!! Not on our watch.’ I’m still shook.
Shout-out to the amazing team that put this together and everyone who came through and made it all worth it. Truly grateful for the love. Now I’m fully pumped for season 10.”
As BBNaija gears up for its 10th season, the gesture underscores Multichoice’s appreciation for Ebuka’s consistent role in shaping the show’s identity and success over the years. For fans, it was a warm reminder of the camaraderie and goodwill behind the scenes of one of Africa’s biggest reality TV shows.
