Joshua “Tram” Alekewumu

Joshua Alekewumu, popularly known as Tram, is a Nigerian author, entrepreneur, streamer and YouTuber who gained national attention as a housemate on Big Brother Naija Season 11 (2026). 

Early life and background

Joshua Alekewumu was born on 11 October 2001 in Lagos state, Nigeria.

Career

Before entering reality television, Tram built an identity around writing, entrepreneurship and digital content creation. His official BBNaija profile lists his career as an author, entrepreneur and YouTuber, while other profiles also describe him as a streamer and content creator.

His career reflects an interest in combining creativity with business and online media. Through these activities, he developed a public-facing personality before making the transition to mainstream entertainment through Big Brother Naija.

Personality and interests

Tram presents himself as a highly confident and self-assured individual. Africa Magic’s official introduction notes that he knows he can sometimes come across as cocky or arrogant, but he considers himself a much softer person underneath that exterior.

He has a strong interest in boxing, working out, reading and learning. His official profile also describes his hidden talent as his awareness and intuition, suggesting that he considers observation and instinct important parts of his personality.

Big Brother Naija Season 11

Tram joined Big Brother Naija Season 11, the 2026 Show Ya Sef edition, as one of the show’s 24 original housemates. He entered the competition with a clear desire to use the platform to introduce himself to a much wider audience. He said he viewed himself as a “gem” whose personality the world had yet to fully experience.

His introduction to the show also highlighted his confidence and his intention to concentrate on the BBNaija experience rather than deliberately pursuing romance.

Personal life

Public BBNaija profiles have described Tram as engaged, although some later online reports have made additional claims about his relationship and marital status that are not consistently supported across reliable sources. The safest description based on the official show profile is that he entered the competition engaged.
