South Africa's Finance Minister Tito Mboweni's recent comments were music to many South African citizens' ears after he shared a post about himself enjoying a lovely dinner with a young attorney who, according to him, is the future of the country.

The post included photos of the two of them dining together very far apart from each other in what appears to be someone's home. While Mboweni did not mention the exact purpose of the dinner date, he did imply that the young woman would be one of the many young people in Mzansi who would take charge of the country one of these days.

In earlier Briefly.co.za reports, South Africa's food-loving Finance Minister recently headed online to share a heartwarming post about a nice long discussion he had with a 108-year-old man who he referred to as Ndhuna Mageza.

The post also had pictures of the two of them together. According to the post, Mboweni and Ndhuna Mageza had a long talk during which the old wise man shared with Mboweni how to live a long, happy and healthy life. Mboweni also referred to the man as a "good old man."
