Exiled former Higher and Tertiary Education Minister Jonathan Moyo has responded to a Twimbo that claimed he decimated ZBC by saying he was serving the interests of the youth when he made ZBC play local content only when he was still the Broadcasting Minister.
While responding to a Twimbo that was mourning the death of veteran DJ PJ who had said:
I still find it hard to believe, the way Jonathan Moyo decimated Radio3 & 1. Whose interests was he serving? RIP “PJ your DJ”
Moyo said:
I was proudly serving the interests of the younger generation, the #PowerFM generation, that Radio 3 nonsense where DJs thought the station belonged to them, and played music as if they were with DJ Biscuit at Circus Nightclub, had to go and go it went; now it’s history!
Moyo defended his then decision and said Radio 3 now Power FM was playing their own music. During his tenure in that ministry Moyo was also responsible for the advent of jingles like Rambai Makashinga which would play on ZBC every now and again.
