‘Tsvangirai Snubs Scores Of Bulawayo Journalists, By Not Turning Up At Press Club’

Former Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai on Saturday evening snubbed Bulawayo journalists as he failed to show up at the press club.

Tsvangirai, through   Bulawayo East MP Tabitha Khumalo confirmed his attendance at 6pm.

Scores of journalists, security agents and MDC-T activists had gathered at Royal Hotel but after two hours of patiently waiting they disbursed.

Press club officials had a torrid time phoning Tsvangirai’s handlers who constantly shifted goal-posts with   Provincial chairman Gift Banda denying that Tsvangirai agreed to show up.

Banda said rival Khumalo sold a dummy to journalists.

The media crew condemned Tsvangirai’s actions.

“This utter nonsense. The man show disrespect for Bulawayo journalists.  We wonder if he dare do that in Harare,?” asked one reporter. By Thobekile Zhou- Source-bulawayo24
