Benriffs wins SUV in Kiekie Unscripted competition

Benjamin Omosivie, known as Benriffs, has won the 2025 edition of Kiekie Unscripted Experience ‘The Big Stage’. He took home a brand-new Mikano Changan CS15 Sports Utility Vehicle after months of tough competition.

The grand finale happened on Sunday, June 7, 2026. This event marked the end of a contest that started with over 500 contestants from different creative fields. These included music, comedy, acting, dance, poetry, and culinary arts.

Benriffs impressed both judges and viewers with his performances. He was announced as the winner by the show’s creator and host, Bukunmi Adeaga-Ilori, known as Kiekie. When the announcement was made, the crowd erupted in cheers. Benriffs was emotional as he received the keys to his new ride.

King Stevie was the first runner-up and won a cash prize of N2.5 million.

After the event, Kiekie shared that the initiative aimed to give talented young Nigerians a platform. Many of them often struggle to find opportunities and industry support.

“When we conceived the Kiekie Unscripted Experience, the goal was never just to create a game show. The goal was to build a bridge and create a launch pad for young talents across the country,” she said.

She said the project helps emerging creatives show their skills on a big stage and reach wider audiences. The competition was unique because it challenged contestants in various areas beyond their main talents.

One of the most talked-about parts of the season was a cooking challenge judged by celebrity chef Hilda Baci. Other challenges included collaborations with well-known entertainers, such as comedians and actors.

Contestants faced unscripted tasks that tested their creativity, adaptability, and stage presence. Mikano Motors, the sponsors of the grand prize, expressed that their partnership reflects their commitment to supporting young Nigerian talents and the growing creative industry.

The company noted that investing in the creative sector is important as young Nigerians push for innovation and cultural influence around the world. The cooking competition was won by Chef Damian and his team, who received cash prizes and professional cooking tools.

The finale attracted many celebrities, including Bovi, IK Osakioduwa, Kenny Blaq, Stan Nze, Jessica Obasi, Kamo State, Do2dtun, Aisha Lawal, Taooma, Bisola Aiyeola, and Osas Ighodaro.
