Johannesburg- South African actress Florence Masebe has recently called out journalists for their pronunciation skills.
Florence took to social media to call out journalists for not pronouncing the Minister of Basic Education’s surname correctly.
“News people need to get together and learn the proper pronunciation of the Minister of Basic Education’s surname. It’s not even difficult. They just keep saying it wrong,” she wrote.
