Shoe cam: Tito Mboweni posts his shoes again, gets roasted by mzansi peeps: “Sembi”

Previously Briefly News wrote about how South Africans have roasted their favourite politician, Tito Mboweni, after he took to Twitter post photos of him during a meeting with Dr JJ Tabane at Stanford Lake in Makgobaskloof, Limpopo and zoomed in on his shoes.

The former finance minister is no stranger to public ridicule and it seems he may actually enjoy it after he emphasised on his choice of shoes, which have definitely seen better days.

The post has been met with several spicy comments from peeps with some even tagging shoe brands to sponsor Mboweni with a brand new pair.
