Jonathan Moyo torches another Twitter war

Jonathan Moyo Higher Education minister yesterday torched a Twitter war with South Africans after he twitted negative remarks about that country's economy.

Moyo posted that South Africa would face the same fate as Zimbabwe and that its rand started falling like a "deck of cards" soon after the President Jacob Zuma-led economy lost its African powerhouse status to Nigeria.

Nduku Nduna, one of Moyo's Twitter followers said although South Africa was facing challenges; it would never reach the Zimbabwe status unless Economic Freedom Fighters leader Julius Malema took over the reins.

But Moyo responded: "SA's exceptionalism is a myth. The African experience has one path with one destiny littered with the same potholes!".
