Mboweni living peacefully after stepping down shows off cooking skills

In a previous post, Briefly News reported that former Finance Minister Tito Mboweni is certainly not letting the news of his retirement get him down.

The highly spirited home-cook recently shared a few snaps of the lovely meal he'd prepared as a final end to his time in office.

Heading online, @tito_mboweni shared pics of the scrumptious looking meal. "This is how it ended! Beautiful!!" he enthusiastically captioned the post.
