Former Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemate Daniel Olatunji, popularly known as Danboskid, has spoken publicly about his current struggles and plans to rebuild his life after his early eviction from the show.
In an Instagram video, the reality star said he had returned to his family home and was sleeping in his sister’s room.
‘I don’t really know what to say, but I know I have so many things in mind. And I know I don’t know what’s going on with me. But I know I have to change what’s going on,’ he said.
‘I know I have to start being intentional. I know I have to start altering my own reality. Because I have to make things work regardless.’
Danboskid said his family was facing difficulties but was not going hungry.
‘As I said, we’re not suffering. My dad is a tenant. So yeah, we’re just suffering mentally,’ he said.
He added that he considered selling his laptop but decided against it, saying he needed it to work on his career.
The actor, model and entrepreneur outlined several projects he is working on to get back on his feet.
‘I have a script going on. I’m going to produce my movie. I’m going to become a movie producer and a world-class top actor,’ he said.
He also disclosed plans to launch an accessories brand and to start driving for Uber.
‘I also want to start my accessory brand. Oh yeah, I know how to select good accessories. So yeah, you all know I’m going to put it on my business page to patronise me because that’s how I want to kick-start myself,’ he said.
He added that he was considering driving cars that people no longer wanted.
His immediate goals, he said, include: ‘Get something done for myself. Start doing Uber. Start my accessory brand. Get a house for myself. Fix my family, and become a meaningful user. That’s the plan.’
Danboskid said he wants to move beyond public perception and show people ‘who he really is.’
He also stressed that he was not seeking pity, but advice and support as he tries to turn his situation around.
The reality star was among the housemates on the 2025 edition of BBNaija and became the first to be evicted after 12 days.
He received the lowest percentage of viewer votes during the first live eviction show.
Following his eviction, Danboskid attributed his early exit to a name change in the house, saying it made it difficult for fans to identify and support him.
Big Brother Naija has launched several careers since 2006, but conversations about post-show struggles and financial sustainability have continued to trend among fans and former housemates.
