Twitter user @_just_pat has some sound advice for the youth of Mzansi struggling with unemployment. The local man says it's about time South Africa's youth hold our government accountable come election season. In his direct post, he writes:
"Unemployed youth, here's a solution to our problem. if any of them comes with their door to door campaigns. give them your CV and If you don't get a job before elections they're not getting a vote. We're tire of empty promises.
Who's with me?"
