South African President, Cyril Ramaphosa, has elicited several reactions after making the announcement of his misplaced iPad via national television.
Gatekeepers News reports that the president after being introduced to the podium at an event in Cape Town, asked for the return of his gadget.
The president’s announcement that the National Ports Authority was now an independent subsidiary of Transnet was briefly delayed because he could not locate his gadget which contained his speech.
Ramaphosa said: “I am looking for my iPad. Somebody stole my iPad.
“Somebody decided they want to dispossess me of my iPad, so I want that. Can I have my iPad, please? They stole it.”
Upon waiting for a few seconds, Ramaphosa added: “I had my iPad.”
Looking at his spokesman, Tyrone Seale, the president asked: “Do you know where they took my iPad to?
“This is the problem of always handing your gadgets to other people. It is always best that I should keep all these things with me all the time.
“I had my iPad. I had it in my hand. It’s gone. I have lost it, it seems.”
Seale later urged the president to return to his seat while officials tried to locate the device.
