“Your Life Will Never Be the Same”: Mzansi Man Dragged for Disrespecting ZCC Bishop’s Photo

• A man is under fire for a TikTok post involving ZCC Bishop Lekganyane’s image during a viral challenge
• His take on the Biri Marung challenge didn’t land, as viewers found his act disrespectful to sacred beliefs
• Netizens called him out in the comments and demanded he show consideration for other people’s religions

TikTok challenges can be entertaining, but this one missed the mark. A South African man is facing backlash after holding a beer to the mouth of an image of Bishop Barnabas Lekganyane.

TikTok challenge goes too far

His take on the Biri Marung challenge quickly gained traction on the platform. But for all the wrong reasons. It seems the post was meant to be funny, but offended many viewers, especially ZCC members.

ZCC members express outrage

The ZCC is one of the largest Christian denominations in Southern Africa. It's no surprise the usage of the bishop’s picture in the challenge, sparked outrage instead of laughs.
