Trevor Noah to be paid R33 million to promote SA

Trevor Noah will be paid R33 million to be in a 5 minute advert to promote South Africa to the world.

This week, the chairperson of Parliament's tourism committee, Tandi Mahambehlala, said one of the issues she questioned Tourism Minister Patricia de Lille about was Trevor Noah costing South Africans R33 million for a five minutes promotional video advert.

Twitter users pour out various reactions upon hearing about the money set to be paid to Trevor.

"There's absolutely nothing that Trevor Noah has done for South Africans that makes him to deserve R33m from the taxpayers' money. Yes he made some of us laugh, but thirty three metre ? I smell money laundering here."

This is equivalent to N1,363,189,495.
