The ‘Confession Challenge’ is the latest Twitter trend that has South African netizens in stitches.
What is the ‘Confession Challenge’?
Every other day, a new trending challenge surfaces. The ‘Umlando Challenge’ is still very much piquing interest, weeks after it was launched. Of course, Dineo Ranaka would be first to tell you about the risks involved in participating.
However, generally speaking, social media challenges are a great way for users to increase engagement, impressions and, overall, grow their following.
On Wednesday, a new challenge was birthed. Users piled up behind the trending ‘confessions’ hashtag to offload some deadweight from their closet and, boy, were there some gob-smackers.
Here are the most-shocking revelations from the Confession Challenge:

I once dated this chick who cheated on me with another guy and she was posting him on her Whatsapp status saying he was a customer who bought sneakers and that was her sale. She was pregnant with his child in the end…#ConfessionChallenge pic.twitter.com/GWnWwZ09qj

A drop of my spit accidentally fell into the pot while I was cooking. I didn't try to get it out and I watched quietly as people eat my DNA. #ConfessionChallenge pic.twitter.com/jWUEWQ7Jy4
