Pearl Thusi and Sizwe Dhlomo go head-to-head in twar

Pearl Thusi and Sizwe Dhlomo got into a spicy exchange of words on Twitter after a tweet about the 100 Most Influential Young Africans was misinterpreted. 

Pearl shared the list and questioned how Nigerian musician Wizkid fell into the 90s on the list.  

It was then that Sizwe jumped in and pointed out that it was clearly stated that the names on the list were in alphabetical order. 

Taking offence to the tweet, Pearl slammed Sizwe's response and said he should have texted her instead of "using his intellect and desire to fix things to undermine people".

Sizwe responded saying that "being rude" would not help the situation.

They continued to take jabs at each other, until Pearl deleted the original tweet, saying she did so because people mentioned she made an "error".

In true Twitter style, users filled the social media platform with a string of memes.
