FP Please.. Uncle Ancestor don resign oo..

Ok

I still feel bad a bit that force... Even though subtle was used to force a democratically elected president into resignation. As much as I want to find a reason to celebrate with the Zims, I strongly feel they should have waited to make this change at the next polls.

I wish Robert Mugabe all the rest he deserves in retirement, and to the Zimbabweans, all the peace they need as the embark on the seemingly wavy journey to true democracy.

Sad news.
This drowns out the excitement I felt after hearing the Dr. Sid's marital woes.

Good! I cannot fathom how an ordinary citizen wanna take charge of his country's leadership the whole of his life even while strength fails him!

waoh

good news for the people of Zimbabwe

see jubilations evri where

how can someone rule for 37 years

and still want his wife to succeed him

hope the incoming leaders learn from this too

Freedom at last remaining Cameroon according to Daddy lol

The curtain is drawn for Robert Gabriel Mugabe. Good for democracy in Zimbabwe.

farwell old man
Take the lady macbeth with you

The speaker stopped impeachment proceedings to say they had received a letter from Mr Mugabe confirming the resignation “with immediate effect”.

It is an extraordinary end for the world’s oldest head of state after 37 years in power.

Power and life is transient. Mugabe who once boasted no military coup can remove him is now under house arrest by the military.

The condemnation by the war veterans in 2016 of abandoning the revolution didn’t help his case either. They had accused him of promoting corruption and said they will not support him in next year’s election.

His treatment of the white farmers in his country didn’t help him or his country either and the sanctions he got suffered the country.

Till now, none of the western counties, who love to promote democratic values, has condemned the military coup. Tacit support or endorsement?

His wife has received criticisms and Mugabe’s attempt to pass her the touch annoyed the military, politicians and revolutionaries more. It seems everyone is finally fed up with him that even when democratic values are shattered to remove him, no one seem to care.

In Egypt when a similar thing happened, it was regarded as a ‘military intervention’ by the US and other powers when obviously a coup happened. What happened in Zimbabwe is a coup but unfortunately, Mugabe has annoyed so many people, destroyed so many laws and his authoritarianism has made it difficult to speak about him in the democratic language.

The West were glad to see his(Mugabe's) back

Huge deal for Zimbabwe, reactions I'm seeing remind me of when Abacha died

Of course. They shared with him the same level of hatred for each other that they can't even call a coup a coup. The silence is deafening and it is a stand itself.

He died in 1998, I was young and didn't know what 'Abacha' meant but I kept hearing it throughout the evening lool

uncharted territory

Many believe he is old and out of touch with reality, others believe he was brutal in his last years in office


Nonetheless,

I salute a man who stood for the liberation of Africans

I salute an icon who fought for the little man in his generation


A man with the heart of lion, but maybe it is time to for new sets of freedom fighters to rise in Africa

As the battle is now against each other, the fight is now against the black elite

The similarities you have drawn with the Nigerian situation is very accurate.

when Abacha died everyone thought he was the main problem of Nigeria, but nearly 20 years after his death Nigeria is still going backward.

Makes me wonder if this is truly a great deal for Zimbabweans or just a political gimmick by the embattled vice president (Emerson Managawa )

That is good
