South Africa is buzzing with mixed reactions following the dramatic finale of Big Brother Mzansi Season 6, where Liema Pantsi was crowned the winner.
Liema secured the top spot in the competition, beating strong finalist Thandeka in a season that kept viewers glued to their screens from January until the grand finale on 22 March 2026.
However, while her fans celebrated the victory, a wave of anger and frustration erupted across social media platforms.
Many viewers expressed disappointment, arguing that other contestants—particularly runner-up Thandeka—were more deserving of the R2 million prize. Some fans claimed the results were “unexpected,” while others openly questioned the voting process.
Clips circulating online show emotional reactions from viewers, with some fans visibly upset after Liema’s name was announced as the winner.
Despite the backlash, Liema’s loyal supporters, known as “Lilies,” have strongly defended her win. They praised her resilience, strategy, and growth throughout the competition, arguing that she earned the title.
Liema, who returned to the show as a “redemption housemate,” had already built a strong following from her previous appearance, which may have contributed to her victory.
