Government's official communications channel‚ GCIS‚ hosted public protector advocate Busisiwe Mkhwebane for a question and answer session earlier on Monday.
However‚ what was supposed to be an informative session‚ saw the hashtag #AskThePublicProtector‚ soon become a source of amusement for South African twitter.
While GCIS tweeted useful information such as the public protector's toll free line and some of the challenges she faced in office‚ twitter users saw it appropriate to make fun of the situation.
One twitter user tweeted a picture of ANC Secretary General Gwede Mantashe‚ asking where he got his suit tailored.
Who is Uncle Gwede's tailor? #AskThePublicProtectorpic.twitter.com/SbPiSg9pWB

While GCIS's intention was for the country to get to know the public protector and her office‚ other users wanted to know if she planned on investigating the announcement of Orlando Pirate's new coach.
