Furthermore, it is contestable that by teaching he is referring to his preaching duties. One can most likely conclude that. But that’s not the case considering he mentioned the two separately. So, by deduction, one can say Siphesihle Zondi studied teaching. But it’s also not to be confused with factual information. It’s highly speculative and deductive.

Even though Zondi has an Instagram account. His personal life remains quite a mystery to the public. So, we don’t know if he’s married yet, or if he has children. And if so, how many? But considering the hostility of the media, he probably keeps his life private for  a reason.

However, we do know that he is a preacher however, and as thus you can expect him to be a God fearing man. In fact he often shares his pictures with scriptural annotations from the Bible.

Height

While his exact height remains unknown. Estimates on his height range from 1.78-1.82m. So, one can say Siphesihle Zondi has an avarage height of 1.79m or so. Which is pretty typical for a man in South Africa. And with such a height, a lot is possible in the film industry. Especially when it comes to being type cast, having a neutral face and good height can come in handy.

Net worth

His net worth is also another such mystery we don’t know of. And since he is such a well reserved and privatized person. We literally have no way of knowing. And since this is arguably his first official biography, there are no estimates on it.
