What’s going on here? It’s a sad tale of man biting a dog when journalists make the news they should be covering! http://t.co/wvzwoTjfQ7 — Prof Jonathan Moyo (@ProfJNMoyo) June 1, 2015
The so called reporters of Sahara TV are overheard asking for Pres Zuma apparently to give him a similar treatment! https://t.co/JomaxxrsKA

The “journalists” or whoever they’re were not asking questions but were making fools of themselves & their country! https://t.co/vqntCeuiKt — Prof Jonathan Moyo (@ProfJNMoyo) June 1, 2015
That would not happen in Zimbabwe against any visiting head of state or gov not even Barrack Obama or David Cameron! https://t.co/7vH8GjK2UI

They were making silly statements which proved that theirs was a preplanned onslaught on a visiting head of state! https://t.co/QWOFYGRuxz — Prof Jonathan Moyo (@ProfJNMoyo) June 1, 2015
No. The responsibility of protecting the President there squarely fell on the shoulders of Nigerian authorities! https://t.co/VOnAvoHFA4

No our guys did a sterling job. That was a VVIP area. The question is who let those would-be Nollywood actors there? https://t.co/ye7L5YQ2VI — Prof Jonathan Moyo (@ProfJNMoyo) June 1, 2015

They are political activists masquerading as journalists who imagine their country as a model of democracy! https://t.co/fsOJTJgmni — Prof Jonathan Moyo (@ProfJNMoyo) June 1, 2015
Wrong. Current law has serious inadequacies including providing for criminal defamation which I don’t support! https://t.co/Of43MomxWe

Free countries have rules including diplomatic courtesy not the display of Boko Haram journalism! https://t.co/0UbiUAGbxc — Prof Jonathan Moyo (@ProfJNMoyo) June 1, 2015
It depends on whom he was communicating to. It could have been to his colleagues. Or the “reporters” are Zim exiles! https://t.co/N306YmT3CN
