Zimbabwe must oust Mugabe and then make him pay

For the first time in a thirty year reign of utter terror President Mugabe of Zimbabwe looks set to look defeat in the face at the countries elections, and it is face of defeat that will hopefully have the last desperate laugh at this murderous despot.

Single handedly this man has taken what was once the strongest economy in Africa and reduced to it to nothing…with inflation of 200,000 percent the currency of the country is as worthless as it could be and to a man whose main weapon was always bribery his tool was not money…but food. He has starved an entire people into submission…but the tide is turning as his own soldiers are now tearing his pictures down from public places. Today, the people of Zimbabwe go to the polls to vote in the most significant elections since the country was granted independence from Britain in 1980.

But this is a maniac who will not go quietly even though he must know his days are numbered; conceding defeat will leave him and his supporters at the mercy of those who will, hopefully, bring him to justice for what he has done to a proud people and a once prosperous nation.

This man used the nation’s main produce, maize, as a way to reward his supporters and withheld it to punish his opposers but it seems that his bargaining powers have run out.  Should he attempt to rig yet anouther election result the promised bloodshed will be of his doing and possibly his undoing. No doubt he will go into exile but it will be an exile where he will be looking over his shoulder for the rest of his life.

Zimbabwe, hopefully, will get through these elections and look to rebuild their nation. Mugabe might be looking defeat in the face; Zimbabweans can only look to the future.

Postscript…

The elections are underway and here is something that could only happen in a Mugabe election. In a region of 24,000 registered voters over 8000 votes have been registered from an area that is completely deserted of people. 8000 so-called ‘people’ have voted in an area where no people are said to be living…and of course, those ‘people’ will have voted for Mugabe…

We can only hope that this creton, his Chanel-wearing wife and all their supporters, are brought to justice when this complete farce is over and sanity once again rules in Zimbabwe.
