Back in June 2008, one of the key “quiet” news sources for Bloggers and Journalists tracking the Zimbabwe elections was a Twitter feed run by the Zimbabwe Civic Action Support Group alongside their blog Sokwanele (”Enough is Enough”).

I ran a Flick-R photo feed about abuse and violence meted out by Robert Mugabe’s followers to those opposing his regime in the elections in Zimbabwe for several weeks.

Bur the Twitter feed at http://twitter.com/sokwanele was the place for breaking news. Here are the entries from late May covering the detention of Morgan Tsvangirai.

Here’s the Tweet that broke the news.
