Legendary chess player, Gary Kasparov, addresses Ace Magashule's foul move
On the night President Cyril Ramaphosa issued
Secretary General Ace Magashule with a suspension letter, he similarly issued
the President with a suspension. Speculation about the legitimacy of Magashule’s suspension surfaced.
He decided to clear up the comments about his suspension letter being fake and that was followed by pictures of him playing chess.
Unfortunately, a follower that is familiar with chess reached out to chess world champion, Gary Kasparov, and questioned the opening move that Ace Magashule was playing in the picture. Kasparov spares no truth and exposes Magashule's moment being a simple pose.

He is also joined by other chess enthusiasts laughing at the irony of the picture and his current political status.
You're even holding a wrong piece, SG. Ayy! The one who took this picture, the ones standing behind you, and everyone who was there must account. Phela it's bad this Khomanda, where are you going to take that pawn? pic.twitter.com/WRmCK5Ip7F

If the Secretary-General did anything with this picture, it created more suspicion about the allegations made against him for criminal proceedings because of the 'pose', as well as the time he chose to share this picture.
Nevertheless, we still await more on the Ace Magashule suspension.
