Jonathan Moyo, US ambassador in nasty social media spat

Jonathan Moyo Higher Education Minister and United States Ambassador to Zimbbawe Harry Thomas Jnr yesterday had a nasty social media exchange, raising fears that the heated exchanges could trigger a diplomatic fallout between Harare and Washington.

Tempers flared when Moyo accused Thomas whom he described as Dirty Harry, of funding and founding a social media movement known as #thisflag campaign fronted by local cleric, Evan Mawarire to expose the country's endemic corruption.
