Munya's favourite quote is: "Let's make history" and his motto is: "courage, integrity, faith." He also says he doesn't find lies funny and that cowards and liars make him angry. Asked his special talent and he replies: "My ability to read a situation."

He says his strategy in the house is to win and that he wanted to be on the new series of Big Brother to promote his film and re-connect with his fans. "Oh and to get my 200 000 dollars at the same time."

He identifies Hazel as his favourite housemate in his first season of Big Brother because: "I respected her self control and poise."
