Moyo to "punish" officials for advert stating Govt had closed 251 private schools

In a series of tweets on his official Twitter account, Higher Education Minister Professor Jonathan Moyo said that officials who had flighted an advert that Government had closed 251 schools will not go unpunished since they did so without following procedure.

Below are the tweets:

There will be consequences. Unofficial, unprofessional & illegal administrative conduct will not go unpunished. Make no mistake about that! https://t.co/mUUwFRuUyc

The Permanent Secretary did not know or approve either. It was done illegally & nicodemously by officials below the Permanent Secretary! https://t.co/yh0YEuJx02

And the officials who issued the closure press release on Sunday did so without my knowledge or permission, as the administrator of the Act! https://t.co/WATRmjiFve
