HRC to probe denial of food to pupils at Mpumalanga schools
Mbuyiseni Ndlozi and Tito Mboweni face off in the battle of the ‘old uncle’ shoes. Picture: Twitter
Finance Minister Tito Mboweni is doing what some have been doing to him– trolling on Twitter. This time his unsuspected target was Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) MP, Mbuyiseni Ndlozi.
Commenting on Ndlozi’s wedding attire, Mboweni wasn’t impressed at how dapper he looked, and instead poked fun at his shoes. No stranger to critique due to his dodgy cooking skills, Mboweni went for the attack.
@MbuyiseniNdlozi . How do you go to such a function wearing those shoes? Mine are better!! pic.twitter.com/5tPx1KB6Wo

Mboweni has been pictured with these “old uncle” shoes and he thinks he has worn them better, multiple times.

Twitter reacted to Tito calling out Ndlozi’s shoes, with some finding the humour and others saying the finance minister should to focus on serious issues like the economy.
