What’s with the hobo look, gov?
Shwa remembers that former Reserve Bank governor Tito Mboweni was once unimpressed with commercial banks not funding his banking ideas.
His frustration manifested itself in the mysterious form of a grey beard, leaving everyone wondering if facial hair held the secret to solving financial problems.
Others joked that it was his way of disguising himself as a revolutionary to intimidate banking bosses.
Now the country’s Governor Number Eight is roaming the streets looking like a hobo. Shwa crosses fingers the untidy new look is just his way of making a statement about the dire state of the economy. Otherwise, someone save him.
