Mpumalanga MEC for Economic Development and Tourism Pat Ngomane had to be called to order by guests at the launch of the domestic tourism campaign in Mbombela on Sunday when he suggested that people must have multiple lovers in order to travel more.

Speaking at the launch of the 5th Mpumalanga Cultural Xperience at the Mbombela Botanical Garden, Ngomane said: “Even your boyfriends visit them (tourist facilities); if you have one, try to have two visits … you are promoting domestic tourism.

After him He was booed by his guests, Ngomane backed off and said: “I did not mean that you should have multiple partners, but have a partner and more friends so you can visit them because by doing that you will be promoting internal tourism.

He added: “Oh, I’m not talking about cheating, I have 10 friends and a wife!”

The Cultural Xperience is an annual event organized by the Mpumalanga Department of Culture, Sports and Recreation, featuring musical shows and comedy.

Three other senior government officials in attendance: Community Security, Protection and Liaison MEC Gabisile Shabalala, Human Settlements MEC Norah Mahlangu and Head of Culture, Sports and Recreation Godfrey Ntombela all helped each other cut the cake in celebration of the five years of the event.
