Salva Kiir Mayardit, South Sudan’s 71-year old president, wet himself in full view of television cameras last week. The incident reportedly took place at a ceremony for the opening of a new road.
Watch video of the incident below:
One sympathetic former lawmaker from Nigeria offered an interesting take on the cause behind the South Sudanese President’s public mishap.
“I have seen a viral video of the President of South Sudan wetting himself in public,” Shehu Sani, a former Nigerian lawmaker told the Nigerian Daily Post. “This may be a urinary sickness or an extreme act of patriotism; refusal to excuse himself while the national anthem was being played.”
We might find President Salva Kiir Mayardi’s public loss of bladder control amusing, but is America really in a position to laugh? Our president can’t even seem to find his way off of a stage.
