President Jacob Zuma met the Queen of England earlier this year. He asked her: “Your Majesty, are there any tips you can give me to run a government as efficiently as you do in the UK?” “Well,” replied the Queen, “the most important thing is to surround yourself with intelligent people.” Zuma frowned. “But how do I know the people around me are really intelligent?” The Queen took a sip of tea and said: “Oh, that’s easy. You just ask them to answer an intelligence riddle.” The Queen pushed a button on her desk and said: “Please send Tony Blair in here, would you?” Tony Blair walks into the room and said: “Yes, my Queen?” The Queen smiled. “Answer me this, please, Tony. Your mother and Father have a child. It is not your brother and it is not your sister. Who is it?” Without pausing for a moment, Tony Blair answered, “That would be me, your majesty.” “Yes! Very good Tony,” replied the Queen. When president Zuma returned to Cape town, he asked to speak to Julius Malema.When he arrived, Zuma asked: “Answer me this please, Julius. Your mother and your Father have a child. It’s not your brother and it’s not your sister. Who is it?” “I’m not sure,” replied Julius. “Let me get back to you on that one.” Julius returned to his advisors and asked everyone, but nobody can give him an answer. Finally, he ended up at the V&A Waterfront and bumped into Mark Lottering. Julius looked around to see if anyone could overhear them, and he whispered: “Mark! Can you answer this for me? Your mother and father have a child and it’s not your brother or your sister. Who is it?” Mark whispered back: “That’s easy. It’s me!” Julius smiled and thanked Mark before heading back to Parliament to speak with Zuma.”I did some research and I have the answer to that riddle. It’s Mark Lottering.” Zuma got up, stomped over to Julius, and angrily yelled into his face: “No, you idiot! It’s Tony Blair!”
