MEC for education in Gauteng Panyaza Lesufi has expressed his despondency at the rate South Africans seemingly consume or purchase copious amounts of alcohol.
In response to a tweet that an expensive bottle of scotch whiskey priced close to R400,000 had been sold out at one of the country’s leading retailers offering Black Friday specials on Friday 29 November, Lesufi expressed his disappointment before calling the country “a phuza nation”.

In an earlier tweet, Lesufi had questioned whether it was possible for South Africa to be alcohol-free.
The tweet was accompanied by an advertisement of said bottle of scotch whiskey, which is originally priced at R500,000, going for R395,000 thanks to the Black Friday sale.
The Black Friday frenzy hit South Africa on Friday with many shoppers waking up in the wee hours of the morning to be first in line to catch the sales on offer.
