MDC-T vice-president Obert Gutu said that he has also been a victim of cyber-bullying.
Gutu’s remarks come after Econet founder Strive Masiyiwa claimed that his wife, Tsitsi closed her Twitter account because of cyber-bullying.
The MDC-T vice president, however, says that he has a skin as thick as that of an elephant and is not really bothered by cyber-bullies. Writing on microblogging site Twitter, Gutu said:
Cyber-bullying is real. I have been a victim of weird, vulgar, hateful & hurtful cyber attacks on social media but since my skin is as thick as an elephant’s, I have taken it in my stride. I have also used vitriol to respond to cyberbullies. This year, I will be a nice guy.
