Gerard has been evicted from Big Brother Naija Season 11, making him the latest housemate to pack his bags from the "Show Ya Sef" house.
The announcement came during Sunday's live eviction show, where voting fans sealed Gerard's fate. He was one of 15 housemates up for possible eviction during the competition's sixth week, and the audience's verdict left no room for him to continue his journey towards the ₦160 million grand prize.

Gerard joins a growing list of departed housemates this season, including Martins, Mercedes, Kamsy, Cassi, Sultex and Goddessa, as well as Neche, who voluntarily walked out of the house.
Gerard's time in the house
During his stay in the BBN house, Gerard made his presence felt, particularly in Head of House challenges, where he came agonisingly close to clinching the title on more than one occasion. His Week Six bid ended when Abi beat him in the final round of the challenge, denying him the coveted position.
The "Everything Is For The Taking" edition, which kicked off on 26 July 2026 with 24 housemates competing, continues to heat up as the remaining contestants push harder for the grand prize.

Barry named most influential player
In other news from the house, Barry was crowned the Week Six Most Influential Player, becoming the fifth housemate to earn the title this season. Previous winners include Abi in week four and Sheba in week five.
Barry's victory in the spin game that came with the title landed him an air fryer. However, fans expecting the award to come with immunity were left disappointed. The current week's theme, "The Switch," has shaken up several of the show's regular mechanics, and immunity was not on offer this time around.
