Re: Mugabe
Every time I see a posting headed 'Mugape' my heart leaps, hoping that the evil despotic tyrannical old bastard has finally breathed his last. I hope one day I won't be disappointed.
The real evil behind him is his wife, who's a South African kaffir bitch from Boksburg, and was a typist at the Rhodesian embassy in Pretoria when he scraped her up.
Apart from destroying a country and the lives of several generations of people in sub-Saharan Africa, I can't think what he's done to merit any recognition whatsoever other than a slow and painful death.

Re: Mugabe
I see the WHO is now reconsidering Mugabe's appointment as goodwill ambassador. Should have gone to Specsavers......
Re: Mugabe
The monkey has been binned.
Actually a really good outcome. The world focussed on the ape and now he’s been humiliated in the eyes of the world by having this appointment whisked away from him.
Expect retributions on the remaining Europeans in Rhodesia even though the idiot making the appointment was an African.

Re: Mugabe
WHO is digging their own grave, like UNESCO has done. There are so many NGOs that are no more than rent seekers, achieving little, corrupt, very costly, and exist primarily for the elite who run them.
Re: Mugabe
Breaking news - tanks heading towards Harare.
Looks like beginning of the end is nigh for Mugape
“Four tanks were seen heading towards the Zimbabwe capital Harare on Tuesday, witnesses said, a day after the head of the armed forces said he was prepared to "step in" to end a purge of supporters of ousted vice-president Emmerson Mnangagwa.
A Reuters witness saw two other tanks parked beside the main road from Harare to Chinhoyi, about 20 km (14 miles) from the city.
One of the tanks, which was pointed in the direction of the capital, had come off its tracks. Soldiers on the scene refused to talk to Reuters.”

It could be good news, but not necessarily. Whatever replaces him may prove to be no better.

Especially if it’s his wife

Re: Mugabe
Just the thought of that women taking over sends shivers down the spine, it would I fear be no improvement, but is there actually anyone in that country who would be a decent leader?, politics, violence to ones own people and unfettered corruption just seem to exist side by side in one big steaming pile throughout most of Africa
p.s., I don't for one moment hold out my own country as any sort of moral beacon I try my best not to be a black+white us and them simpleton, it's a matter of degree though innit

Re: Mugabe
Latest news suggests Mugabe is in the process of being removed. Tanks and explosions in Harare. Perhaps they can resurrect Idi Amin as boss General.

Re: Mugabe
“Soldiers have taken over the headquarters of Zimbabwe's state broadcaster as explosions echoed across the capital Harare, witnesses say, compounding speculation of a military coup against 93-year-old President Robert Mugabe
Witnesses said several state broadcaster ZBC members of staff were manhandled in the early hours of the morning (local time) as the soldiers occupied the premises, while the source of the explosions was not immediately apparent.
The reports follow a tense evening after Zimbabwe's ruling party accused the head of the armed forces of treason as tanks and troops took up positions around the capital, escalating a "rupture" between Mr Mugabe and the military's top brass.”
Definitely something going on

Re: Mugabe
The statement read out by the military came hours after soldiers overran the headquarters of ZBC. A man in military fatigues said: "We wish to assure thenation that his excellency the president... and his family are safe and sound and their security is guaranteed."
What a pity.

Re: Mugabe
Next step for Mugabe and family will be retirement/asylum in South Africa or somewhere in a gilded cage far from Harare anyway.

Re: Mugabe
The old boy's big mistake was to break with the hierarchy of old cronies and propel Grace forward as the next leader designate (manipulated by her and her cabal no doubt). Those further down Mugabe's faction's pecking order will face the worst consequences here, facing imprisonment, torture or worse, while Grace, cordially loathed by all and sundry, will be allowed to go into internal retirement with the old boy as he is till totemic to many of the people and needs to be there to add legitimacy to his old comrades and now his current usurpers.

Definitely a pree-emptive strike against the "Grace faction". Designated nominally as the G40 faction.

Harare - Zimbabwe's military said it had seized power in a targeted assault on "criminals" around President Robert Mugabe who were causing social and economic suffering, but gave assurances the 93-year-old leader and his family were "safe and sound".
Zimbabwean soldiers and armoured vehicles blocked roads to the main government offices, parliament and the courts in central Harare, a Reuters witness said on Wednesday.
While nearby, Zimbabweans queued for cash outside banks as public taxis ferried commuters to work.
"We are only targeting criminals around him (Mugabe) who are committing crimes that are causing social and economic suffering in the country in order to bring them to justice," Zimbabwe Major General SB Moyo, Chief of Staff Logistics, said on national television on Wednesday.
"As soon as we have accomplished our mission, we expect that the situation will return to normalcy."
The military detained Finance Minister Ignatius Chombo on Wednesday, a government source said. Chombo was a leading member of the so-called 'G40' faction of the ruling Zanu-PF party, led by Mugabe's wife Grace, that had been vying to succeed Mugabe.
