ZBC workers walk out of meeting to vent Moyo fury

Disgruntled ZBC workers on Thursday walked out of a meeting called to discuss their plight in protest at the manner in which Information Minister Jonathan Moyo has handled their grievances.

The meeting was called by the Information and Media Panel of Inquiry (IMPI) which is visiting media houses country-wide to establish the state of the country's information sector.

The meeting at ZBC's Pockets Hill base in Harare's Highlands reportedly lasted less than 10 minutes as it degenerated into a farce.

Workers accused Moyo of being the author of their misery after he slashed workers' salaries to 2010 levels.

"What's the use of coming here when the minister has the forensic audit report in his office; he knows what is happening here so why do you waste your time?" said some of the workers.
