Big Brother’s McJunior speaks on winning a R2 million cash prize

McJunior, a popular reality television performer, opens out about winning the R2 million prize money on Big Brother Mzansi and beating Makhekhe. McJunior Zondi, a 25-year-old aspiring writer, tells Sowetan that he had no plan going into Big Brother Mzansi.

Zondi claims it hasn’t hit him yet that he is this season’s winner, and his adrenaline is still racing. He also still believes he heard the announcement five seconds ago.


“I don’t wanna lie, I was also one of those people who thought Makhekhe was going to take it because he is a formidable competitor. I kept hearing his name in the crowd and before Lawrence [Maleka] called out my name, I had already made peace with the fact that I could be the runner-up. But when he said my name, I cannot put in words how I felt.”

Mzansi we have a victor! 🏆👑 McJunior has been announced as the winner of the #SyaMosha season. 🇿🇦
