#Mabena takes social media by storm and the nation loves him

Mabena is tall and lazy for nothing, but people people love him anyway.


#Mabena has been trending on Twitter keeping South African social media users in stitches. The hashtag started after a couple of videos of members of the South African National Defence Force training were posted, Mpumalanga News reports.

In one video, Mabena’s colleague can be heard saying that Mabena is “just tall and lazy for nothing”.

In another video, Mabena makes a return. In this one, either one of his colleagues or superiors says: “Mabena please disappoint me again, I knew it Mabena”.

Tweeps did not hold back and weighed in using hilarious memes.

Here are the Mabenas:
