- ^Note 3 : In the first week, there were no nominations. Instead, the housemate/housemates with the lowest total amount of "Bet9ja Coins" were to be evicted.[7]
- ^Note 4 : On Day 7, Omashola and Ike were put up for eviction by Big Brother, they both received a stern warning and a strike each for breaking the house rules.[8]

- ^Note 6 : Avala, Khafi, Isilomo and Gedoni were gathered to the arena area by Biggie for an eviction challenge. In the end, Avala and Isilomo failed in the challenge, they were therefore evicted from the Big Brother house.[10]
- ^Note 7 : Seyi refused to use his Veto Power thus no Save and Replace took place. The nominations remained the same for the week.[11]

- ^ Note 9 : On Day 30, two new housemates (Elozonam and Venita) entered the house.

- ^ Note 12 : On Day 32, one new housemate (Cindy) entered the house.
- ^ Note 13 : Housemates were split into two team: The Icons and Cruisetopia .
- ^ Note 14 : Housemates will no longer have the usual nomination process, instead they will be having nomination challenges. Housemates are henceforth playing all the Big Brother Naija Games or Nomination Tasks in their selected Teams. The winning team will have weekly supplies. The losing team will automatically be up for eviction.
- ^ Note 15 : Housemates were regrouped into two new team: The Legends and Enigma while the former team 'The Icons' and 'Cruisetopia' were dissolved.[12]
- ^ Note 16 : Week 12's nominations are fake.[13] On Day 78, Mercy bought immunity, securing her a place in the finale.[14]

- ^ Note 18 : On Day 89, Tacha was ejected from the Big Brother house due to physical assault to Mercy.
- ^ Note 19 : As the final part of the privilege of Frodd's Ultimate Veto Power, he had to do a random eviction draw between Diane and Omashola. He picked Diane. So Diane was evicted from the house.
- ^ Note 20 : For the final week, the public were voting for who they wanted to win, rather than save. Mercy became the first female winner of Big Brother Naija on Day 98.
