Acumen Media has collected the most talked about stories on social media:
• We were expecting "six of the best" from #TitoMboweni and the #BudgetSpeech but most left the event saying that it wasn't as bad as expected. Mboweni's analogy of the #Aloe made an impact.
• #Eskom is still one of the biggest stories again this week as the story converged with #BudgetSpeech and #StateCaptureInquiry.
• #StateCaptureInquiry gets #Eskom up on the bench this week, as the evidence was presented to the inquiry.
• The nation rose in defence of #CasterSemenya with hashtags like #HandsoffCaster and #LetHerRun.
• #Bosasa made an impact this week as their bank accounts get frozen and the liquidation process begins.
• #PatriceMotsepe made headlines this week as #Malema pointed out the relationship to #Ramaphosa and #JeffRadebe.
• #UDM launched its manifesto and #BantuHolomisa said he wants to be deputy president.
• #Election2019 took a much smaller seat this week, being drowned out by #BudgetSpeech and #Eskom.
• #MensConference, a social media escape for men from Valentine's Day, extended throughout the week.
• Yet another #billboard from the #DA left social media unhappy.
