Robert Mugabe Is Sick, Flown To Singapore by Godson333: 12:06am On Jul 10, 2017
His health has been the subject of increased speculation in recent years and authorities in March arrested two journalists over a report alleging that he was “in bad shape”



President Mugabe now walks with difficulty and sometimes dozes off during meetings.





The 93-year-old President of Zimbabwe, Mr. Robert Mugabe, is sick and has gone to Singapore for treatment or what local media say is “routine medical check-up”.



“President Mugabe on Friday left the country for Singapore for a routine medical check-up,” Africa Review quoted local media.



The paper said the veteran ruler is expected back in Zimbabwe midweek.



President Mugabe’s medical trips to the Southeast Asia city state have become more frequent in recent years. His previous visit was in May, also said to be for a “routine medical check-up”.


In 2011 and 2014 he had eye surgery in a hospital in Singapore.

In 2016, the government had to deny that he had died abroad during his annual vacation.



President Mugabe has declined to name a successor and his ruling Zanu-PF party has been riven by factionalism for years.



Despite President Mugabe’s advanced age, the party last year endorsed him as its candidate for the 2018 General Election.



Mugabe is not the only African president currently abroad for treatment for an undisclosed condition.



Some African leaders have also taken ill, including President Muhammadu Buhari, who is currently recuperating in London.



The president of Angola, Jose Eduardo dos Santos, recently spent a month in Spain for medical treatment and on Monday officials announced that he had gone back for what was described as a “private visit”.



Mugabe who was born 21 February 1924 became a Zimbabwean revolutionary and politician, and has been President of Zimbabwe since 1987.



He previously led Zimbabwe as Prime Minister from 1980 to 1987.



He chaired the Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU) group from 1975 to 1980 and has led its successor political party, the ZANU – Patriotic Front (ZANU–PF), since 1980.

Mugabe can still do the honourable before his dead body start contesting for next election in Zimbabwe as his wife said he will win the election even with his corps. I don't want him to die with certain records on Zimbabweans neck.

The African youths have been so impoverished that they spend 98% of their time thinking where the next meal would migrate from.

In Nigeria, the zealous and articulate progressive young graduates are subjected to a military camp in guise of NYSC where their aluta spirit is subliminally killed and shackled that upon passing out all you think about is getting a "good" job and becoming a political jejune without knowing it.

The uneducated youths that seek for proper governance are labeled as touts and societal misfit by the same old bloods ruining the political system and as well issuing "elderly" words of advice to the educated youths not to tow the way of the so called street urchins, in turn the former obeys sheepishly and stares continuously awaiting their promised white collar jobs!

The old politicians are very good political environmentalist, apt in the skill of recycling. They have mastered the act of recycling old wines in new bottles corked up in beautiful political parties and slogans all ready to be sold at the next elections ...

If this continuous, the youth can never be the leader of tomorrow.

Leave it or take it.

This is their plan, to die in office, it is like a fetish to them.

A 93 year old person cannot take proper care of himself let alone a country. undecided

African youths arise, for the time is now

Re: Robert Mugabe Is Sick, Flown To Singapore by Untainted007: 10:46am On Jul 10, 2017
Since he has made his Presidential seat a life time position like a monarch. He should rather die on thrown while his son takes over according to his set plans. Africa leaders and their selfish interests. Haba 93 years and excess power has intoxicated him to the extent he doesn't want to leave. He should start preparing his burial site.
