Former Information minister and Zanu PF spin doctor Jonathan Moyo has accused the media of snubbing President Robert Mugabe, suggesting there is a media blackout.

Moyo said Mugabe gets coverage only when conducting official public duties.

Apart from a media blackout, Moyo said ZimAsset is now being ignored.

"The President's policy programme that won the election is being ignored & the President is not being covered outside ceremonial occasions!," he posted on his official twitter account on Sunday evening.

In the recent past, vice president Emmerson Mnangagwa has been receiving wide coverage from state media.

Moyo and Mnangagwa are bitter rivals in the succession battle.

Below are some responses on Moyo's claims :
