Here is the list of female contestants revealed during the show's launch on Sunday.

- 9. Ibifubara: The 27-year-old therapist from Rivers said she is not shy about her ambitions. “I don’t mind betraying anyone if it would land me the win.”
- 10. Tracy: A 27-year-old graduate trainee from Anambra, Tracy is hitting pause on pressure and play on pleasure. After years of battling comparisons, “She’s ready to break free, let loose, and have real fun.” Loyal in love, despite thinking “relationships are shams,” she’s bringing honesty, humour, and heart.
- 11: Ivatar: The 37-year-old is the oldest female contestant and a media mogul, mum, and self-described “main character” from Anambra.
