Social media reacts to Dhlomo's comment

@0Nduemasi1 reacted:

"He failed one simple thing as a leader. I mean, he could have asked those kids to speak to them privately about that. Instead of bringing the whole world to come for them! Black people learn to love one another from now on. How y'all going to do that, it's up to you."

@King49327670 commented:

"Very good! He shall be airlifted to Somalia so the Somalian pirates can deal with him at sea. He must face his fate with the African sword that's engraved one Africa pointed right into his back, and his eyes wide open to the sea where the sharks await him. Let him decide to jump within 10 seconds. No later 🔥 foolish man finished from history!"

"Exactly, like the Gouws guy, if PA was a party, it was gonna recall him. But he is PA."

@Refilwe56942944 said:

"Our constitution should not allow criminals to be in government even if their party wins elections. South Africans like to normalise nonsense. Now we are surprised why Kenny was found at Katiso's house. Gayton should be removed from government."

@SimthembileMab3 reacted:

"This week, he must kiss his bodyguards and state blue lights goodbye just like how his friend Kenny Kunene did last month."

@xactly_getwitit said:

"I hope this sets a new standard and introduces new laws that put all races on a level field. Black people face racism every day. People should get charged for their racist tweets."

@DinahRadeb55700 said:

"This is shocking from the perspective of the cabinet vetting. Aren't all these the things they are supposed to find before appointing him a minister? So who does vetting?"
