Social media goes wild after Mahama appeared on live TV with an open flap

When you are the president of Ghana, you must make sure you don't suffer any wardrobe mishap.

But if you must, just make sure it is not on national TV during a rather tense election build-up.

It seems President John Dramani Mahama didn't get the memo as he left his flap opened and exposed while speaking at GTV's "Presidential Encounter" on 17 November, 2016.

Prez. Mahama didn't zip up his flap and social media can't handle it

Yhup, you read that right. John Mahama, the presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress forgot to close his flap.

Ahhh so who is Mahama's costume designer,how come our President trousers flap is open and they did not notice it...#MahamaFlapOpenLiveOnTV pic.twitter.com/7NYTrKay8v
