British Prime Minister Theresa May danced with students from a Cape Town school on Tuesday as she visited the country on the first leg of a trade trip to Africa.
Mrs May also spoke with a group of senior students before leaving for a meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.
After visiting South Africa, she was due to travel on to Kenya and Nigeria where she would meet the countries' respective presidents.
Mrs May's visit will focus on a renewed partnership between the UK and Africa and will be joined by a business delegation with representatives of companies and startups from across the UK.

So what is Spicy Chickenjoy?
Just as McDonald’s has the Big Mac, Jollibee has Spicy Chickenjoy – a piece of fried chicken that’s crispy and spicy on the outside and comes with a side of spaghetti, all covered in tomato sauce and topped with sausage slices and ground beef. It sounds like a recipe that a child would come up with, but perhaps that’s the point – a flavourbomb combination of cheap comfort foods. Chickenjoy is Jollibee’s best-selling product in every country in which it has a presence.
