Big Brother Mzansi fans were left in shock after another fan-favourite, Ashley Ogle, was unexpectedly evicted from the house on Monday evening, 10 February. Her elimination, determined by her fellow housemates, follows the departure of the Bandana Boys: Luzuko Mashalaba, Abongile Mhambi (Ezra), and Sipha Lee (Sphamandla Mthembu), who were sent home the previous night. With Ashley’s exit, only 16 contestants remain in the race for the grand R2 million prize.
Ashleyβs eviction has left fans buzzing, especially due to her close bond with 23-year-old housemate Akhonamathemba βSweet Guluvaβ Mbele. The couple had quickly become a fan-favourite, with many viewers wondering how Sweet Guluva will cope in the game without her. Their relationship had been one of the season’s most captivating storylines, and now fans are eager to see how it will unfold outside the house.
The Bandana Boys’ eviction sparked a mix of reactions. Ezra admitted to feeling disappointed, acknowledging that his blunt personality may have contributed to his early exit. Luzuko, on the other hand, remained optimistic, offering his support to the last remaining Bandana Boy, Swiss, while taking a jab at fellow contestant Nate, whom he referred to as a βsnake.β
Sipha Lee, known for his commanding presence and signature bandana, didnβt hold back with his opinions. When asked about the future of the βSweetAshβ relationship, he firmly stated, βNah!β and further confirmed that he was the ringleader of the Bandana Boys. With the game heating up, the remaining contestants are in for a wild ride as they battle for the ultimate prize.
