ACTIONSA chairman in the Eastern Cape, Athol Trollip, has found himself in an awkward position after his account allegedly made an inappropriate comment on Twitter (X).
An X account called @Onlymoms3 posted two women in sexy bikinis with a caption asking X users who they would rather poke, the mother or the daughter.
Trollip’s X account allegedly responded by suggesting that he would rather poke the mum.
"The one whose had twenty odd years more exposure to the sun," Trollip account responded.
Other X users suggested that Trollip was using social media and drinking at the same time.
X user @Sanada_N said: "Must have been brandy and coke. A dangerous combination, Faku. Next time lumka."
