The sixth season which premiered on 24th and 25th July, 2021, had 26 housemates and lasted for ten weeks, with only six finalists – Emmanuel, Angel, Pere, Cross, White Money and Liquorose making it to the final week.
On the final day, October 3, 2021, Emmanuel was the first to be evicted, followed by Angel, then Cross, and Pere, the second runner up.
The host, Ebuka, had asked Pere what he would want to tell Maria who was on the stage along with the other evicted housemates. He said he loved her.
Ebuka also asked him what word he has for his American girlfriend, he said he loved her too.
Then came the moment when the host, Ebuka, announced the winner amid the tension and apprehension for the two contenders – White Money and Liquorose. Then White Money clinched the day.
