Mugabe on his way out?
Discussion
My partner works at the hospital where he is being treated .. I hope they are making a few $millions from him before he pegs out.
I asked this morning "So is your hospital treating Mugabe?" ... "I can't comment".. right then ... puzzle solved
Pity I cant sent him a get well bunch of grapes [dipped in cyanide ] .. I am joking of course.

Elections in Zimbabwe this week. Wonder how rigged this one will be.
Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe has said he will quit after 33 years in power if he loses Wednesday's election.

read an article about a certain Mr Hoogstraten who apparently paid $3.5 million towards Mugabe's election funds in return for a stake in one of the largest diamond mines. Hoogstraten is clearly convinced Mugabe can rig it again.Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe has said he will quit after 33 years in power if he loses Wednesday's election.

Mugabe's party claiming victory. Tsvangirai saying the whole thing was a farce.

Aged almost 90, surely Mugabe can't have long left.

I'm pretty sure we said exactly the same thing last time around http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-23530095

It does however have large deposits of diamonds, coal, copper and other valuable minerals, as well as a healthy and growing trading relationship with China. I wish the profoundly corrupt, economically inept murdering bds in ZANU PF weren't going to win, but it's a reasonable bet they've stitched it up properly this time round; after the debacle of 2008 they were taking no chances of democracy having a say. There's also the issue of there being more than 1 MDC candidate, thus splitting the Silly Party vote and guaranteeing 4 more years of Sensible Party rule... oh I don't want to do this anymore.
Hopefully Capt'n Bob will drop dead in a week's time and there'll be a ZANU PF power struggle followed by another, slightly less corrupt, election. It's not the murderousness or the corruptness that galls, that's painfully endemic in Africa; what really rips my knitting is the fact they took an economic powerhouse that fed southern africa and in 20 years reduced it to the destroyed wreckage it is now. There's corrupt, then there's fking stupid.
