Claim: A video clip and Whatsapp message went viral on social media claiming that President Emmerson Mnangagwa had reshuffled parliament. The claim is based on a news clip purportedly flighted by SABC News and was quoted by news vlogs such as Panonzi Pano (12,800 views) and Mbire TV Zimbabwe (41,000 views).
Is this true or False: No, the quoted video clip is from 2017
ZimFact has established that the video that has gone viral is actually from November 2017. The South African broadcaster had got it wrong in 2017 falsely claiming that President Mnangagwa had reshuffled his cabinet then when he had not. The clip was debunked by The Zimbabwean.
The old clip has been embedded into bulletins by local vloggers Panonzi Pano TV and Mbire TV Zimbabwe and has widely circulated on Whatsapp.
