“Excuse me sir @elonmusk. I cannot for the life of me understand why the government hasn’t approached you to come help us out with this electricity crisis, but is there any chance you could perhaps do us a solid, you know, with you being born here and all,” he tweeted.

These wee the words of rapper Kiernan Forbes as he took to Twitter asking US billionaire and SA-born Elon Musk to do us one better by helping with "Eishkom".
SA has been experiencing load-shedding for a while, but when the power utility implemented stage 6 load-shedding from 4pm until 10pm on Tuesday, the rapper became hot and bothered.
AKA pleaded with the billionaire on Mzansi's behalf to share solutions for the country's energy crisis.
Music producer and musician DJ Tira chimed in and pleaded with Elon.
In a separate tweet the rapper urged the US billionaire to do it for his country of birth.
“Please @elonmusk. I know you have a solution for load-shedding. Do it for your country, your original one.”
