The TikTok user starts the prank in the video by asking if the mother heard the President's message about terminating the social grant.

The question quickly led to complaints about job losses in the teaching and nursing industries and the crisis of unemployed graduates, with her suggesting that if the President is tired, he can step down and hand over to Julius Malema.
