Cape Town - President Jacob Zuma got noticed during Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan's Medium Term Budget Policy Statements.

Specifically it was the president's lack of attention that drew attention.

Roughly an hour and 13 minutes into the Finance Minister's report, the President was caught sleeping on camera.

But the President is not the only politician to be caught sleeping in Parliament.

Earlier this year EFF MP Mbuyiseni Ndlozi accused International Relations Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane of sleeping on the job during a debate on President Jacob Zuma's impeachment.

Here's a look at these sleeping incidents and a few others.
