Northern Cape Premier and ANC Northern Cape Provincial Chairperson Dr. Zamani Sual may have a career as a stunt double if his recent experience is anything to go by.
The politician took to Twitter to share what he calls one of many experiences he has had where he was mistaken for musician Seal.
“Is there a resemblance here? Just today a white boy called her mom to come and meet with Seal. I’ve encountered this in the country and abroad more than 1000 times,” tweeted Saul.
