MBABANE: Senator Themba Masuku, the Acting Prime Minister said one of the reasons he decided to quit Facebook was that some of the people using social media are suffering from a brain disorder.

The Acting PM was heavily questioned through social media after he made a statement appealing to the public not to listen to three Members of Parliament(MPs) who are calling for democratic reforms.
“Some of the people using social media are suffering from a brain disorder of some sort. They can insult me all day long but I will remain who I am and will not change,” said the Acting Prime Minister when quoted by the Times.
