President Robert Mugabe has unveiled a 3.8-metre statue of himself at the same time as Zimbabwe suffers its worst economic crisis in years.

The cartoon-like statue depicts the 92-year-old in defiant attitude, with one arm raised above his head and fist clenched, wearing his trademark thick-framed glasses.

It was produced over six months by Dominic Benhura, a local sculptor whose work has been exhibited around the world.

Mr Benhura was pictured standing nervously beside the statute along with Mr Mugabe and his wife, Grace.

Mr Mugabe said the work had been donated as “charity”.
