Our President has been the centre of recent memes so far and it seems even South Africans have caught on to the joke. South Africa's President, Cyril Ramaphosa, got a sculpted bust and we were generously "offered" the piece of art due to its resemblance to President Uhuru Kenyatta. How friendly of them huh?
Here is the tweet:

Netizens reacted to the comment, steering clear of the said bust. Kenyans in particular wanted to 'keep it moving', passing it on to Ugandans and Zimbabweans. It's funny how we come together during such times and it shows how interesting the Internet can be. Someone even coined a new name for the odd looking bust, naming it 'Ramanyatta'.
The tweet went viral garnering as many as over a thousand retweets. Of course this is all in jest and so no, worry not, we're not about to spend a few millions importing President Cyril's facial art. Oh, how we've come used to scandals!
I guess this is the kind of distraction we need given Harambee Stars disappointing defeat at the African Cup of Nations match with Algeria. They're still our people, our talents perhaps, lie elsewhere.
Here are some of the reactions.
