I beg to differ. It was an official account disguised as a personal account. There was NOTHING personal about what was being posted there. 

I say that the Government needs an OFFICIAL POLICY on these issues. We have so much to rectify. To date, we still have Cabinet Secretaries and Senior Government Officials using Gmail and yahoo email addresses. This is a bigger issue than just social media.

Hi Barrack,

Interesting conversation. In this context the deleted account was a personal account and not the ministry's account. As much as in they were posting day to day activities, it was a personal account and the Ministry account with previous activities and information is till active. 

Next question arising from the comments on the Tweet would then be, with the Twitter accounts that are public property is it right to block citizens?

Hi Barrack,
I feel we might be a bit petty because...Is it a requirement in the first place to have a personal social media account if you are holding a particular position in Govt?

Listers,

An interesting conversation is going on on Social Media following the decision by a Cabinet Secretariat to delete his Social Media Account. In fact a Senior Counsel has already weighed in on the issue. Is there merit in the concerns being raised or are we being petty?

Thank you

Best Regards
