Last night president Cyril Ramaphosa addressed the nation again, on plans to ease the lockdown regulations as part of his phased resumption of economic activity. The president detailed the five-level risk-adjusted strategy, which saw us on level 4 and some regulations being lifted.
The address had the masses watching with batted breath and on the edge of their seats as many expected the lockdown to be extended. As the president concluded his address he reiterated the message of staying home, to flatten the curve. Ramaphosa wanted to lead by an example and wear his face mask, but his demonstration did not go as planned.
We don't know if he had a panic attack or he generally struggles to put his face mask on because, it gave him a hard time. The president ended up closing his eyes with the mask and, became a laughing stock with his attempt of masking up.
Imagine trying to put it on and the elastic band just snaps and hit your hand, that pain is hectic right? That's what the president felt on a live TV broadcast and as the cameras kept on rolling he struggled even more to do the right thing.
Mzansi flooded social media with memes laughing at him and, our ZAlebs could not help but laugh as well.
