DA Parliamentary leader Lindiwe Mazibuko on the red carpet at the State of the Nation Address, Parliament, Cape Town. February 2014.
CAPE TOWN - Unemployment, poverty, service delivery protests and fashion -- those were the main things on South Africans&39; minds ahead of President Jacob Zuma&39;s State of the Nation Address.
It seemed like DA parliamentary leader Lindiwe Mazibuko could give Zuma a run for his title of most criticised SA politician.
Mazibuko&39;s designer gown was harshly criticised -- so much so that some of the comments cannot be repeated.
There is always a sacrificial lamb at the SONA, this year Lindi just drew the shortest straw. That&39;s all.
