The Harare Post can authoritatively reveal that the Twitter personality, Alois Naka (@Ali-naka) is the brains behind the formation of #ThisFlag which was fronted by Evan Mawarire.

#ThisFlag was a social media movement that psyched citizens into defiance against Government in 2016.

Naka reportedly helped Mawarire flee to the United States of America.

Information at hand reveals that Naka once worked at an African pay television network, CNBC Africa.

Sources who requested for anonymity said that Naka was not a principled Public Relations practitioner and Journalist as he is motivated by money than principle.

“Ali is a slick hustler who takes advantage of deluded politicians, milking them of all they have and then move to the next victim. He was former South African President, Jacob Zuma’s guy and an Economic Freedom Fighter (EFF) leader, Julius Malema’s rival.”

“Interestingly, when Zuma left the Presidency, Ali somersaulted into Malema’s corner,” said the source.

It can also be revealed that Naka did public relations job for former South African Communications Minister, Faith Muthambi. More revelations revealed that Naka has once worked for South African MTN.

Similarly, information at hand reveals that Naka once worked for the Paul Kagame PR firms propping up the Rwandese image. However, he had a fall out with the Rwandese.

To many people, trolls are the scourge of the Internet. Hiding behind a cloud of anonymity, they post horrendous comments that hurt, offend, and even defame people.

 Abuse of social media is on the rise in Zimbabwe. For instance, there is a shadowy group, Team Pachedu on Twitter which is trolling social media users and also peddling falsehoods. The account is suspected to be run by Freeman Chari (a known MDC apologist), Wes Beal and Jefrey Smiths (VanGuard Africa) among others.
