Speaking on her approach to the game, Imisi revealed that her strategy was built around authenticity, observation, and emotional intelligence, noting that she chose to “connect with people’s hearts rather than their egos.”

The interview coincided with the presentation of her ₦150 million grand prize, which includes ₦80 million in cash, an Innoson SUV, and other sponsored rewards at a ceremony in Lagos.

Since its release, the video has garnered over 1,300 engagements on X (formerly Twitter), sparking mixed reactions. While many praised her authenticity and emotional depth, others debated her English proficiency, with fans defending her as “real, unfiltered, and relatable.”
