Fellaz Mugabe was an evil detector who was power hungry and full of sugar honey ice tea. Say what you can to paint him a benevolent honorable man and a saint guess what, he ain’t because his workers suggest otherwise and the effects of his selfishness and untamed behavior is reality that millions are living with every second of our lives.

[@mattkits944]

He was good, and then turned into a monster against his own people the more he stayed in power. Typical of all African dictators. Take an example of Museveni of Uganda, Mobutu of Zaire, Omar Bashir of Sudan. The list goes on and on.

Love, Joy, Peace, Gentleness, Selflessness, Unity and Hope for the future will be bricks that can make Zimbabwe a bread basket for Southern Africa again in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

@QhaweMadonko I learnt From Donald Trump, he said Putin is smart, but the problem is not that he is smart, the problem is our leaders are dumb. Are you that kind of person who acknowledges that your enemy is smart than your father? Look, I used to tell my friends that I have no quarrel with President Mugabe, when he was in jail 10yrs why was my father not in there with him? Then I learnt he didnt even go to the war. If your father was a true hero he should have been the president, why are you not Chamisa today? You play it safe right? then your kids tomorrow will be saying Chamisa is the devil, no thats a wrong address, where was your father, where are you today for your children tomorrow?
