Magufuli Flying Economy Class? Moha Jicho Pevu Exposed for His Lies
Anti-government bloggers and journalists led by Moha Jicho Pevu tweeted pictures of Magufuli aboard the plane, with the caption:
“Tanzanian President on board Ethiopian Airlines Economy class but going on official duty. A rare breed of African leaders emerging.”
Pictures of world leader Pres @MagufuliJP flying economy with a big smile hve restored my faith in humanity. Pray for this son of Africa.

But did Magufuli really fly economy? The answer is No.
The pictures were taken last week as the Tanzanian President was launching two planes belonging to Air Tanzania. The plane did not even leave the ground with Magufuli on board.
Despite being corrected by many of those commenting, Mohammed Ali refused to make the correction, cementing his reputation as unapologetically one-sided. He does not let facts come in the way of a good anti-government story.
@MohaJichoPevu Can you acknowledge this information is wrong?

No, Magufuli did not fly Economy while going on official duty. It was a photo-op for Air Tanzania’s new Bombardier Q400 all-economy cabin! pic.twitter.com/c1tEEDffOR

And for the record, Uhuru launched a bigger KQ plane, a Dreamliner.
