President for sale. This was the tagline of a Gumtree ad that disappeared soon after it was posted \u2013 but not before doing the rounds on social media.<\/p>\n
The tongue-in-cheek advert was posted on Thursday by username Average Joe.<\/p>\n
Featuring a picture of President Jacob Zuma, it offered him for sale, either for a price or a replacement.<\/p>\n
The text of the ad humourously implored readers to make an offer.<\/p>\n
\u201cDesperately in need of a functioning president. This one costs too much to maintain. Will take whatever we can get at the moment\u2026 just make an offer.\u201d<\/p>\n
The ad said the seller was willing to \u201cswop for smarter\/cheaper model\u201d, but would not entertain offers from chancers \u2013 \u201conly barcode ID holders or TAX payers please\u201d.<\/p>\n
