GOVERNMENT has urged social media users to stop the spread of malicious reports that depict Zimbabweans as perpetrators of crime in South Africa, as this is one of the causes of violence against Zimbabwean nationals living in that country.
Addressing Tuesday’s post-Cabinet briefing, Information, Publicity and Broadcasting Services Minister Monica Mutsvangwa said Government remains committed to ensuring its citizens living in South Africa are “given requisite protection and accorded necessary dignity.”
“Cabinet noted with concern the continued malicious reports on the social media depicting Zimbabweans as the chief perpetrators of crime in South Africa and highlighted the need to consistently supply correct information in the formal media,” she said.
