Day 34: Five housemates handcuffed to settle their beef

Five Bazozwa Transgressors Cuffed to Settle Their Beef in Big Brother Mzansi 2026 house.

Drama reached new heights in the Big Brother Mzansi 2026 house as five Bazozwa “transgressors” were literally handcuffed together in an attempt to settle their unresolved conflicts.

Liema, Thandeka, Ramona, iLano, and Trixie were paired in rotating one-hour shifts as part of a conflict-resolution task designed by Big Brother. The mission? Work together to find a hidden key using clues linked to their past “crimes” or personal belongings.

And from the very first shift, it was clear that some wounds are far from healed, especially between Liema and Thandeka.

How the Task Worked

The brief, read by Head of House Mmeli, stated that at the sound of the vuvuzela, the selected housemates would be cuffed together for one hour.

During that hour:

• The paired housemates had to collaborate.
• They had to follow clues provided by Big Brother.
• The goal was to find a hidden key that would unlock their handcuffs.
• If they found the key before time expired, they were free to continue socializing normally.

The task was meant to force reflection and encourage accountability for past actions.

The Cuffing Shifts

First Hour

1. Liema & Thandeka
2. Ramona & iLano

Second Hour

1. Liema & Ramona
2. Trixie & Thandeka

Third Hour

1. Thandeka & iLano
2. Ramona & Trixie

The structured rotation ensured that each transgressor had to face someone they had unresolved tension with.

Liema and Thandeka Clash Again

Unfortunately, the first pairing between Liema and Thandeka did not end well.

Instead of reconciliation, the conversation quickly turned heated.

Thandeka expressed frustration, claiming she was the only one truly reflecting on their past issues.

Thandeka: “I’m the only one reflecting. She is not.”

Liema strongly disagreed.

Liema: “Reflect? I have reflected enough. I’m not going to reflect again. You don’t have a heart. What you said was disgusting. And you don’t want to apologise but you want me to apologise for a wig.”

The argument escalated, with both housemates throwing sharp words at each other. Thandeka accused Liema of lacking remorse after watching a video of herself, while Liema fired back without hesitation.

At one point, Thandeka called Liema a “sociopath,” while Liema responded by accusing Thandeka of being “evil.”

The exchange made it clear that neither party was ready to bury the hatchet.

By the end of their hour, it was evident that the task had not achieved its intended goal for this pair.

Thandeka concluded by saying:

“So as you know, Biggie, there is no such thing as that for me and Liema. Just forget about it.”

While other pairs may have made progress, Liema and Thandeka’s tension remains one of the most explosive dynamics inside the Big Brother Mzansi 2026 house.

Will time eventually heal their differences, or is this rivalry far from over?
