Yesterday 10 th December, Sky News reported that 764 people had died from cholera in Zimbabwe, 15 000 and upwards were suffering from the disease and 500 cholera victims were being treated in South Africa.
Today 11th December, Comrade Robert Mugabe, President of a dying nation, announced that there were was no more cholera in Zimbabwe---his valiant doctors had conquered the disease. This is nothing short of a miracle. No drugs, no clean water, no infrastructure, and the Great Mugabe has again solved the problem. This is indeed amazing. In fact The Great Comrade must be an apostle of God with his miraculous powers.
Let me not jest any more--does Mugabe not realise that lying hypocrites of his ilk will serve a population of NIL soon?Is he so insane that he can sweep away all problems in a dying country in a hand sweep? This optimistic comrade will soon be leader of an empty regime, an empty purse and a burial ground for all Zimbabwe's people.
I mourn for this other Somalia. I weep for this other Rwanda. More importantly, I condemn the leaders of Botswana, Mocambique, Zambia, Swaziland and the Republic of South Africa for holding back on action against Zimbabwe simply because Mugabe was a " saviour from colonialism" and a "Freedom fighter".
What price does freedom cost? Zimbabweans know!
