Ailing First Lady Grace Mugabe yesterday attended Zanu PF Politburo session in Harare prompting Information Minister Professor Jonathan Moyo to splash her pictures on social media.
Professor Moyo has been largely active on twitter taking every opportunity to deny perceived negative government reports.
This morning, Professor Moyo posted a picture of a smiling Grace.
"Dr Grace Mugabe's attendance of Politburo meeting yesterday shamed media liars whose reports lied she was gravely ill" he wrote.

Grace who is said to be battling colon cancer quietly flew back into the country last weekend from the Far East where she had gone for medical treatment.
Sources close to the First Family said Grace was in the country.
However, a picture showing a frail-looking Grace has gone viral on social media.
Grace has not made a public appearance since 8 March, when she officiated during commemorations to mark the International Women's Day.
The first lady was forced to remain in Singapore in January after the first family's annual holiday, with Mugabe telling supporters on his arrival back home that the first lady had undergone appendix surgery.
Grace later came back home and said she was "fit" to drive the ruling party's women's league agenda.
