"The housemate that initiated and drove the conversation (Bravo B) has been disqualified from the game and the other housemate (Makhekhe) will face a reprimand from Big Brother with a social lesson on behaviour etiquettes," the statement read.
Big Brother issued Makhekhe with a double strike for: Mocking other men, for not treating women with respect, and by extension, using derogatory language. He said the use of offensive language when referring to acts of intimacy translates to hate speech.
If Makhekhe gets one more strike, he will be disqualified from the game.
"Mzansi Magic will ensure that Makhekhe is coached to call out anyone who speaks or behaves in a derogatory manner," they said.
The conversation that got them into trouble has been trending online. Bravo B is heard saying they should have sex with one of the housemates.
“Liema, let’s f**k her first, she’s drunk. Let’s f**k them tonight. The girl I was hoping would let me smash is Mpumi,” Bravo B said.
A similar incident occurred in the house in 2015 during season two. One of the contestants, Adams, was accused of having sex with another housemate, Bexx, who was drunk and had passed out.
When Bexx woke up, she said she didn't remember what happened.
Adams was expelled and M-Net's CEO at the time, Yolisa Phahle said the channel implemented new measures to protect contestants.
The conditions were that on-site content directors would intervene immediately to address any suspicious conduct, whether on air or not, and then escalate to senior production staff.
They added that future productions of Big Brother shows must include a person solely responsible for risk mitigation and monitoring of the ongoing well-being of housemates.
Lastly, they said alcohol consumption will be monitored.
