"Like your relationships. No consistency, just lies."

MorwaNurse asked:

"Between him and Latoya, who lied more to you?"

KKwaNtloana teased:

"Just like Latoya lied to you."

phothoma02 dragged Lebo:

"You've been lied to a lot in your life and still stayed, so leave the president alone."

Meanwhile, others labelled Lebo an "attention-seeker" and said she couldn't wait to post her picture with the president:

GaragaraNewTown said:

"You couldn't wait neh? You've been eager to post this picture with a caption."
