FILE -- In this Friday, Nov. 17, 2017 file photo, Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe officiates at a student graduation ceremony at Zimbabwe Open University on the outskirts of Harare, Zimbabwe. On Friday, Sept. 6, 2019, Zimbabwe President Emmerson Mnangagwa said his predecessor Robert Mugabe, age 95, has died.
“Comrade Mugabe will be buried at the Heroes Acre,” deputy information minister Energy Mutodi said. “That is where he deserves to rest.” Reaction to his death was mixed, although praise ironically came mostly from ruling party officials and military leaders. In an editorial page, the newspaper praised Mugabe for “his uncompromising stance when it came to the rights of Africans.”
“Notwithstanding the many mistakes that he made, many Zimbabweans will probably agree that had he not held on to power beyond the 1990s, he would today be largely remembered as one of Africa’s best leaders in history,” the paper said in an editorial.
He left the country “struggling”? Isn’t that a bit of an understatement?
Garbage disposal?
We will miss you Robert and your fabulous jackets!
Guess remembering his victims is too much trouble
He wasn't a fun guy.
Oh did he die? Good 😊
There should be days of enjoyment....and his body should be buried in an unmarked grave.
He didn’t “rule”, he STOLE. Big difference.
This will never make sense to me.
Dictateur sanguinaire et corrompu 👎🤮💀
Should be days of elation and nonstop partying!
. I don’t think anyone could dispute that he was the finest African leader of his generation.
His mind was revered. It can't be denied. He is a fighter fighter. Politics is always a different game. In the end all humans & death comes certainly.
Why? He ran the country into the ground. The once beautiful and prosperous Rhodesia turned into a cess pool of starvation and corruption.
