Responding to a question from Harare West legislator Jessie Majome in Parliament on why Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC) content seemed to favour Zanu-PF’s programmes, Information Minister Christopher Mushohwe said other political parties were welcome to seek coverage from the national broadcaster.
Said Mushohwe:
I want to thank the member for that politically motivated question. ZBC is a public and national broadcaster and it is available for anybody and everyone in this country or beyond. If Zanu-PF has more programmes than other political parties that ZBC covers, it is not the problem of ZBC. Let those political parties go out there and ask ZBC to cover them and see if ZBC will refuse and let me know. If you do not have programmes and ZBC does not know that there is a programme that is taking place then invite ZBC, they do; they cover.
