01 Apr 2015 at 07:16hrs | Views
Media guru, Trevor Ncube and Information Minister Jonathan Moyo have engaged on a social media spate with Ncube accusing the minister of being a bully.
The borne of contention is over NewsDay Tuesday lead story which said Cabinet has not been seating for nine occasions.
Moyo said that was a lie.
This morning Ncube who is Chairman of Alpha Media Holdings (AMH) said Moyo was a bully.
He wrote on Twitter "Jonathan you are being a bully now. And you know it. @ProfJNMoyo @tinsmush.
"Nothing justifies a leader such a you making the remarks you made. We expect better from you @ProfJNMoyo @SureKamhunga @tinsmush
"Two wrongs don't make a right @ProfJNMoyo You could have made your point without the other irresponsible stuff @tinsmush".
Moyo did not take this lightly and he responded "@TrevorNcube @tinsmush not everyone who disagrees with you Trevor is a bully. In this case you are the Media Bully in defence of a lie!,".
Moyo accused NewsDay of inventing tweets. 'New lie is I tweeted yesterday that 'ministers have been meeting every Monday without Mugabe". No such tweet exits"
However, later on Ncube seem to have backtracked.
He said "have instructed @VTKAHIYA to give me a brief. If @NewsDayZimbabwe got facts wrong they WILL apologise @ProfJNMoyo @SureKamhunga @tinsmush".
In response Moyo said "@TrevorNcube @VTKAHIYA @NewsDayZimbabwe @SureKamhunga @tinsmush Thank you. That is the spirit. I'm happy to meet Kahiya after cabinet 2day"
"I'm off to Cabinet while you read more lies from NewsDay. Are they trying to raise money from donors or what?"
On Tuesday, Moyo had said : "Too eager to entrench a lie under the cover of a Fools Day that never was!
"Apparently NewsDay has a false calendar. The paper's editors foolishly thought today is 1st April when its 31March!".
