Zavion "Everyone lied on Survivor"

Last night saw the exit of Zavion Kotze on Survivor SA: Champions.

Zavion, who had been a massive threat from the start of the game, was voted off when an immunity idol came into play. And while he did play the game, in real life, Zavion has been getting tons of criticism for being a liar.

“It was a game. Everyone did things and said things that they wouldn’t do in real life. I played the game and I’m proud of the way I did things.”

After the challenge, Zavion decided to tell Sivu his fate. During tribal council, he was stroking Sivu’s leg offering compassion - a move which many thought was condescending. Zavion, however, wants to set the record straight.

“I was genuinely trying to reach out and comfort. It’s in my personality. I wanted to be kind and be nice. Even though it’s a game and someone was going to go home, it still hurt when that happened.”

So, who does Zavion want to win the game now that he is out of the running? “Graham or Sivu. They’ve both played an excellent game and they were both involved in blind sides."
