#AskMmusi explodes on Twitter (Listen)
JOBURG - The newly elected DA leader, Mmusi Maimane, caused a twitter storm today after he invited users to engage in a question and answer session using the hashtag #AskMmusi.
The session was meant to ignite a political conversation between South Africans and Maimane but it instead took a more humourous turn as the hashtag exploded on the social networking website.
South Africans instead chose to ask Maimane more ‘pressing’ questions like his food preferences, life advice and then some.
702’s Sam Cowen managed to get Maimane on air to answer some of her listeners questions as well as hear what the new DA leader thought about the massive twitter reaction. (Scroll to the bottom of the article to listen to the interview)
Below are some of the more memorable tweets:
