We have just witnessed the end of the Presidency of President
Mugabe. It is very interesting that today we refer to him as the former leader
of Zimbabwe
when a few weeks ago he was still President of that country and legally had
more months to rule.
*Robert and Grace Mugabe |
During
the last few weeks of Mugabe's rule, there was so much coverage about him than
any other African leader. Getting attention on channels like BBC, CNN and
Reuters is not for nothing. News on Robert Mugabe sells like tea to the British
and beer to the Germans.
I
am not sure that they are interested in him because he is the oldest President
in Africa . It appears the West was looking
forward to the day Mugabe will leave for them to ensure the reversal of some of
his unfavorable decisions.
