South Africa’s struggling economy seems to have finally emerged from the recession that has plagued the country for years but a GDP growth of 2.5% is deemed too low, according to IOL.
These reports have sent Twitter users into quite a buzz and here’s what some had to say:
I will not praise Zuma's administration for getting us out of the technical #recession. We had no business being in it in the first place.
