I was never a traitor, Makhekhe clarified his situation with Yolanda back in BBMzansi house

1st runner up of BBMzansi season IV, Makhekhe clarified his situation with Yolanda during their stay in the house on Khoffee with Khosi. He explained how different the house is from the outside world. Makhekhe talked about how the dynamics of the game often lead to misunderstandings and misinterpretations among fans. He took the opportunity to set the record straight on a public platform like Khoffee with Khosi.

The cakes spearhead claims he was never a traitor, as many fans especially those of Yolanda, think he is. Makhekhe explained that after you talk to friend A in the house, you will talk to friend B. Later on, you will discover that both of your friends, A and B, are dealing with personal problems, and by then, you will be entangled in the mess. And then you are called Mr. Traitor.

This is a house where the viewers will be watching you and think you know everything, while you have no idea what is happening, and if it happens so too, you can’t carry your best friend’s beef, and that is where people get to call you a traitor, which I am not, he told the host, Khosi Twala.

One major reason Makhekhe didn’t win is that Yolanda fans, who were supposed to go in fully for him, didn’t do it like Lilies did for McJunior. Simply because he was seen as a traitor. They rather voted for McJunior, while others split their votes, making sure he didn’t win because they saw him as a traitor.

Makhekhe’s perceived betrayal of his friend led to a loss in votes from Yolanda fans, ultimately costing him the win. This highlights the importance of perception in reality TV competitions. Cakes King appeared unhappy after saying that, judging by his appearance, but he soon warmed up.
