1. #Publicprotector takes top spot not only because of her ongoing battle with #PresidentRampahosa but also because the #Hawks are investigating #Mkhwebane.
2. #MissSA is our second-largest story apart from a #hairdebate because of her natural "crown", the #MetroFM poll sparked outrage amongst social users.
3. #WomensDay takes the third position with many making it clear that there was nothing to celebrate here, just a further struggle to free our women from the horrors of everyday SA life.
4. Several international stories made waves in SA, remarkably though, the mass shootings in the US did not make an impact in SA.
5. The death of phenomenal writer Toni Morrison left many South African's quote her beautiful script.
6. The "suicide" of Jeff Epstein did not fool the world nor SA, and it is surprising to see so much traffic on this story in our country.
7. Hajj and Eid made a huge impact on SA social media as images flooded timelines.
8. #Gumede remains on the charts, one has to wonder why she has been singled out amongst all the other names we could focus on?
9. The #Twar between #Anele and #PhatJoe makes another entry into the charts. If it was staged, it worked!
10. #Amla's retirement from cricket made the final of the top 10.
