Sydney Masamvu Wikileaks dossier- Part One

Former Zimbabwean journalist Sydney Masamvu has attracted a lot of attention following revelations that he was working closely with the United States embassy in Pretoria and was providing the embassy with impressive insights and analysis.

A search of the Wikileaks cables shows that there are 39 cables that cite his name, the same number as those that cite Vice-President Joice Mujuru.

He beats other prominent media personalities like Alpha Media boss Trevor Ncube and multiple award winning journalist Geoff Nyarota.
