Today’s diary sessions were an emotional rollercoaster, with housemates baring their souls to Big Brother about the shockwaves caused by the Head of House (HoH) challenge that upended the game just before last night’s nominations.
Former HoH Uyanda shared his thoughts on being ousted by Sipha Lee after briefly holding the title. In his diary session he told Big Brother that his competitive nature seems to intimidate his fellow housemates, suggesting it may have played a role in his dethroning.
Alliances and Cliques Take Shape
The diary sessions also shed light on the emerging alliances and cliques within the house. Abobo labeled Ezra, Nate, and Swiss as the “Amaphephandaba Squad,” accusing them of constantly stirring up conflict. Other groups making waves include the “Snake Group,” allegedly composed of Ezra, Melino, Nate, Siphesihle, and Swiss, as well as the “Support Group,” which Nsuku revealed includes herself, Bonni Bee, and Mata.
Jojo added to the gossip by highlighting groups like the “News Anchors” and “Tea Gossipers” that have formed since Uyanda’s brief HoH reign. Savage pointed out factions like “Nate’s Army” and “Bonni Bee’s Crew,” noting that Nate seems to rely more on Bonni Bee’s group than she does on him. Meanwhile, Mandy Hagan acknowledged the increasing “spiciness” in team dynamics and noted her warming relationship with Nsuku despite their past differences.
Guys Turning on Each Other
Tensions among the men were also a hot topic. Abobo and Uyanda criticised Ezra and Swiss, calling them spineless followers. Uyanda specifically remarked, “For his age, he should be able to stand on his own,” in reference to Swiss. On the flip side, Swiss didn’t hold back either, telling Big Brother that he finds Abobo irritating and generally dislikes him.
Sipha Lee and Siphesihle Weigh In
Sipha Lee blamed the escalating drama on the women in the house, accusing them of stirring the pot. Siphesihle voiced her frustration over Jojo allegedly stealing her ideas and testing house boundaries, further fanning the flames of tension.
Men’s Conference: A Firelit Resolution
Amid the growing friction, the men sought to address their differences by forming the “Men’s Conference.” They held their first meeting around a blazing fire in the garden, hoping to resolve conflicts and restore unity.
