Faces of Africa - Mugabe: The Old Man and the Seat of Power, Part 2

[@nathimagcaba1123]

He was not perfect and I don't agree with some of his decisions but he fought for Africans till he died and I respect him for that. I wish things had turned out differently.

[@emmanuelologbeseawolowo9832]

Thanks. You send you all my warm greetings, his woman and family. I commend Mugabe for this great initiative. The restoration of stolen lands, improvement on Education and others is applaudable. His, concentration on the economic growth is applaudable. His contributions will always be remembered being a non conformist, a true Africanist and lover of his people. I see myself in his story, in the areas of being controversial. Of, course, those that were patient to come closer to Robert, knows him to be a nice man.

[@overviewthem]

When the former colonial power England and its allies fought against Robert Mugabe's leadership throughout his years as leader of Zimbabwe, it shows that he was onto a greater ideology of having his people being determinants in every respect over their own destinies; a feat the Western powers were afraid would open the eyes of the people. With sanctions thrown on Zimbabwe, it was difficult for Mugabe's dreams to realize. The disunity of the African Union or should I put it the disunity of neigbouring countries to rally in support of each other was paramount to the country's downfall in its economic aspirations as the West saw the weakness and cowardice and therefore as they will always do exploit that area. Until the regional countries of Africa designed a plan that is fundamental in fostering a united front without the involvement of the West, then the individuality of each state will be open for easy picking by the Chicken Hawks of the West. Albeit though, for all that Mugabe was doing there was a great lack in his will to have confidence in his own people. There should have been a secret plan of training his people on how to manage their own circumstances, especially when areas stolen from them were taken back from the former colonizers. Yes, even though I agree to lands being retaken I was scared that there was no proper training of the people; a fault in the shortsightedness of his leadership. Another great fault in leadership is having confident in the healthcare of your own country. It is unbelievable ridiculous that African leaders still demonstrate that weakness a weakness others outside are opted to exploit when they see it necessary. Hence as in Mugabe's case where he went wrong after all the successes of liberating his people, was his lack of recognizing and believing in his people to take on the task themselves to accomplish and build on his ideology. If that had been the case indeed, he would have groomed someone among his government or among the people via the various qualified organizations to be future leaders and and at the same time being a mentor in the process. Instead he decided to hold onto power for life and the outcome in the end justified the means - a lesson in history for future leaderships.

A man that continued to stick his middle finger up to the West, and for good reason, however, as usual the ones who suffer are not those like Mugabe or any elite its the poor man. He knew what he was doing and because the white West continued to hound and publicly harass his he turned on those whites in his own country. Think Im wrong?
