Boniface Mwangi, Ezekiel Mutua trade insults on Twitter


A full blown tweef has erupted between human rights activist-turned-politician Boniface Mwangi and Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) chief execute Ezekiel Mutua.

On Friday the two engaged in a not so gentlemanly way as they hurled insults at each to the amusement of their followers on Twitter.

It also started with Mwangi’s post and a caricature of Mutua calling out the self-styled moral police. The activists choice of words were however not so diplomatic.

As you would expect, the outspoken Mutua returned the favour by telling off Mwangi and lecturing him on why he can never succeed in politics, in an apparent reference to Mwangi’s failed bid at capturing the Starehe parliamentary seat in the August general election.

HEATED EXCHANGE

But the fiery Mwangi was not yet done. He went ballistic with allegations touching on Mutua’s tenure at the helm of Kenya Union of Journalists (KUJ), which Mwangi was member during his time as a photojournalist.

The heated exchange excited their followers on Twitter who also weighed in with their views.
