After going viral for incorrectly identifying Gomburza as MaJoHa, the teen cast of Pinoy Big Brother once more took a history quiz.

This time, the housemates correctly named the trio of priests who fought for independence from Spain in the late 1800s.

PBB's picture quiz bee was part of the Head of Household challenge, where the winner will get immunity from nomination.

Half-Egyptian housemate Eslam El Gohari called them "Ajajozep," while Stephanie Jordan answered "Majoha" again.

Gabb Skribikin, who was the first to call the Gomburza "Majoha," got the answer correctly this time.

"Natama ko na po yung pagkakamali ko po last time, sobrang happy na po ako at satisfied na po sa sarili ko kasi nakikinig po ako at 'di ko na po inuulit yung mistakes ko po dati," she said.

When asked to name the Datu of Mactan known to be the first Philippine hero, Skribikin answered Sultan Kudarat while the rest identified him correctly as Lapu-Lapu.

El Gohari and Skribikin also incorrectly guessed Super Typhoon Yolanda, calling it Odette and Ondoy, respectively.

UP Tacloban student Tiff Ronato won the challenge.

"Nag-flashback po Kuya lahat ng pinag-aralan ko dati. Masaya po, Kuya, kasi for the first time in forever, ako po yung nanalo sa HOH challenge and of course, kapalit po niyan is immunity for the next nomination."

Education advocates said the MaJoHa blunder should prompt a revisit of how history is being taught in schools.

The host of PBB, Robi Domingo, also asked content creators to "battle Majoha." He also shared a clip from history show Bayani which tells the story of the three priests.

"Sa una, nakakatawa, pero habang tumatagal, di na nakakatuwa. Sana maging daan ito para makita kung ano ang kakulangan sa sistema ng ating edukasyon."

The execution of Jose Apolonio Burgos, Mariano Gomez, and Jacinto Zamora was one of the catalysts that led national hero Jose Rizal to write his opus Noli Me Tangere, which delved into the abuses of Spanish colonizers and friars.
