Here’s what's going down in the house today.
Uyanda

12::00 Housemates are taking turns singing their favourite song. 

23:15 Jojo sings for the house and Nsuku cries while Sweet Guluva gives her his meat, and some vocal coaching. 

23:00 Housemates are enjoying their pap, chakalaka and braai'd meat. 

22:05 The pool party is over, and as the housemates head back inside, Siphesihle asks Abobo for meat, but Abobo flips it on her, asking where it is. He’s convinced she hid it because it’s nowhere to be found. Siphesihle isn’t having it, asking why she’d be looking for meat if she was the one who took it. Things heat up when Abobo accuses Nate, who claps back in her language. Just as it’s about to get serious, Nsuku pulls the meat out of the cupboard – turns out, Abobo was just messing with them the whole time!

20:00 The pool party is on, and Abobo is the braai master, keeping a close eye on the meat to make sure it doesn’t disappear.

Watch the pool party highlight: 

19:29 Housemates are welcomed back into the house with images of recently evicted housemates, Beekay and Swiss. 

19:27 Biggie announces that the housemates have won their wager presentation. They have a short celebration and exit the arena.

19:15 Big Brother gives feedback to the housemates, but first, Nate and Sweet Guluva are crowned King and Queen of Umlilo.

18:24 Nate and Sweet Guluva present their walter filtration device meant to save water in salons. They are the founder and engineer of Zenke and Co. 

18:00 The wager presentation is underway and the housemates have showed up in their professional gear to the innovators conference. 

Watch the wager presentation: 

15:48 Jojo is telling Nate how difficult things are in the house, and Nate suggests that a nap is needed every now and then. Jojo disagrees, saying that what’s really needed to survive is a deep sleep every once in a while.

15:40 Abobo is giving Uyanda some encouraging words, telling him he absolutely deserves to be in the finale. He is telling him that he's worked hard and, despite the drama he's been involved in, he’s earned his place in the house.

15:35 Mshini and Sweet Guliuva are belting out some Maskandi tunes, reminiscing about this morning's workout session where they were squatting to the beat of Maskandi songs. Mshini is telling the housemates how much she enjoyed the session and wishing that the trainer, Nkululeko Dlamini, would come back to lead them through another intense workout.

15:17 The housemates are back in the house, diving right back into their wager presentation. Mshini and Uyanda are going over their points, making sure they’ve got everything on lock for a flawless delivery.

14:02 The housemates just entered the arena to check out their presentation setup and get some practice in. Housemates are happy by what they see with Mshini screaming with excitement.

13:38 Mr. Dishwasher, Uyanda, is washing the dishes and singing away like no ones business.

12:30 The housemates are finally up and are discussing their eagerly anticipated presentation, strategizing and fine-tuning their plan for the upcoming task.

10:20 Uyanda is elaborating on the brief for the task. He informs the housemates that as part of Gennovator Week, their collective task is to create 24 soap gift hamper packages by Sunday. Each hamper must include the following four items: a beautifully wrapped soap bar, liquid soap, hand lotion, and body butter. Successfully completing this task will earn the house an additional R150 000 in the money pot.

10:13 Uyanda is introducing a new task to the housemates. This task gives them another opportunity to replenish their money pot, which has been drained from the purchases made in the Boiler Room.

09:55 Siphesihle and Uyanda are doing their laundry, and Siphesihle is chatting with Uyanda about the challenges of living in Biggie’s house, especially how massive it is. She mentions how it's a long walk from the laundry area to the closet.

08:40 A brand new day has begun, and as always Siphesihle is up and singing her heart out, hitting every note like she's in a competition.
