Nkoana-Mashabane caught sleeping in parliament again

Minister of International Relations Maite Nkoana-Mashabane was on Thursday caught dozing off in parliament.


During President Jacob Zuma’s final oral reply to MPs’ questions for the year, IFP MP Mkhuleko Hlengwa tweeted a picture of the minister sleeping in the National Assembly.

This is not the first time Nkoana-Mashabane has been caught sleeping in the House. In April last year, EFF parliamentarian Mbuyiseni Ndlozi took jabs at the minister after he caught her sleeping.

Watch the video below:

And of course, who can forget President Jacob Zuma? While Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba delivered his first budget speech in parliament last week, the president was fast asleep.
