Hai but Tito Mboweni really do be sharing some peculiar meals. The former finance minister was preparing a chicken stew for dinner when loadshedding hit, but Mzansi is not completely convinced that he was unable to cook.

Many Saffas are under the impression that 'Chef Tito' either has a gas stove hidden somewhere or that he owns a generator. The numbers on his stove staying red - with a power outage - also confused a few tweeps.

Below are some of the responses from Saffas:

@Edgar199 said:

"Next time please @tito_mboweni, let the chicken cook first before you add the peppers; by the time the meat is cooked, those peppers (and carrots) will be over-cooked and lose all nutrients. Please consider this advice."

@JuanPlough wants to know:

"Kanti you also don't have a generator?"

@madumi41763836 shared:

@Who_flungdung tweeted:

@D_Bhekza said:

"Even Eskom can't stand your cooking any more sir..."

@MatomeNody added:

"I've never hated chicken like this after seeing your chicken."

Previously, Briefly News reported that Tito Mboweni dropped a plea to his social media followers asking them to help as he tried to cook chicken. The food lover shared a snap of a chicken and some spices next to it.
