Yup, politics really is a game – and Pokemon Go has given local satirist cartoonist Zapiro a new lease on life.
To make people aware that certain people in our current ruling party are really awful, Zapiro has represented each of them as a Pokemon. First, we had the Guptas, Zuma, Hlaudi, and Mugabe all in one – HERE – and now we have our local fav, Marius Fransman.
Representing a really uncool Drowzee in the cartoon, Fransman has made headlines for allegations of sexual harassment against his 21-year-old assistant. You can read the worst bits HERE and HERE, just so you know what Louisa Wynand ‘allegedly’ went through.
Now he is going against his suspension by taking the ANC to court, in an effort to be reinstated officially as the party’s provincial leader. Dick.
Predatory Poker Pokemon indeed.
