Minister of Sports and Recreation Fikile Mbalula has also taken to social media to share his best moments of 2016.
Among other things, enforcing transformation in the Springbok rugby team was included among Mbalula’s best moments of the year, in addition to the clean audit his ministry got.
The ministry also supplied sport facilities to several rural schools.
Wayde van Niekerk and Caster Semenya, who won gold medals at the Rio Olympics in August, also made the minister’s year memorable.
Even Bonang “Queen B” Matheba got a mention from the sports minister. At first we thought he was talking about his obsession with pop star Beyonce when he only referred to her as “Queen B”, but the picture he shared on his Twitter account made it clear he was being proudly South African.
We still haven’t figured out why she made it on to his list. What we do know is that Bonang had a good career year, along with her boyfriend, AKA, and the minister has shown his support for the couple.
The hashtag #Bestof2016 has been trending, with people all over the world sharing their best moments of the year. Rihanna’s Work, also one of Mbalula’s favourite tracks of 2016, according to a playlist he once shared with his followers, was mentioned.
