Social media and the internet have given individuals the power to keep up with things as they happen like never before. With near-real-time updates pouring in you may be wondering which accounts and hashtags to follow and keep up with these protests.
Which accounts will keep you up to speed?
With that being said we made a list of 9 accounts you can follow on Twitter. The list doesn’t focus on Facebook because FB isn’t suited to real-time updates as much as Twitter. These are some of the Twitter accounts we’ve seen posting updates on the Shutdown Protests:
- Information Desk
- Open parly
- Newsday
- Ministry of Information, Publicity and Broadcasting
- Cite ZW
- Zim Media Review
- Jonathan Moyo
- 263 Chat
- The Feed ZW
- The Herald
P.S These Twitter accounts are not ranked in any particular order…
