@Francischukey said:

"This one loud for real! Liema vs Thandeka is giving pure premium drama—this is the kind of content that keeps the timeline alive. Let the gbas gbos continue!"

@QueenyIle wrote:

"Maybe I will vote for Thandeka, let me observe. You guys say she is a bully, aah, I will start watching so I can judge myself because I don’t do hearsay, then take it from there."

@Eve_Cult commented:

"There’s something psychologically wrong with people who find Thandeka’s behaviour & attitude exciting. Like, is that what it’s gonna take to win? Then this show is nonsense. #BBMzansiS6."

@Tennymalebogo1 mentioned:

"Thandeka, I wasn’t about to watch Biggie this year. You got my attention, you did put your point across without insults, even when they were hurled at you."

@LuGie_M replied:

"I honestly think Liema, it’s her strategy based on what she said in the diary room…It’s premeditated, she said it ends now, being nice towards Thandeka."

@youngxkiddowwsa stated:

"Some of you really don’t understand the meaning of a 'bully'. We are all viewers, and none of the clips have shown that she’s been bullying people, last night Didi was trying to get a reaction out of her, and none of you said anything about it."
