Former South African Finance Minister Tito Mboweni may have retired from his post but he hasn’t retired from posting online. The happy-go-lucky former minister has been living his best life on Twitter for the past few years and has gained himself a steady following of people who seem to love interacting with him. In fact, the minister recently headed online to share an old photo of himself in his younger days and definitely left people buzzing.

While some commented on his looks, others joked about his former party, the ANC, and how “poorly” they are doing.

Tito’s throwback gets many thumbs up

Tito Mboweni has never shied away from the spotlight and seems to relish in attention.

The former minister has been keeping updated with his lifestyle consistently since he stepped down as the country’s finance minister.

When he isn’t posting his food and his recipes, he is sharing photos of himself.

On Sunday 17 July, good ol’ Tito headed to Twitter to share a throwback photo of himself in his younger days.

He happily captioned the snazzy snap: “To be young again…”

What does Mzansi think?

The ex-minister raked in a bunch of compliments from social media users who said that his eating habits – which consist of a rich garlic and pilchards diet – were keeping him young and fresh.

Of course, other people took some time to bash the ANC.

Here are some of their comments:
