He was good!

Mugabe actually did nice once...

Ok, Mugabe is bad! No issues about it! But the fact is, he wasn’t like this always. In the mid-80s, African states were integrated under Southern African Development Community (SADC) to wipe out the prevalent racism of whites throughout Africa. The man most pro-actively involved was a person called Robert Mugable. Sadly, the same movement took a violent turn with land reclamation from whites becoming a standard rule of both law and gun. Later, though SADC widened, it still remained a good platform to resolve complicated African problems.

Today, Mugabe’s protege has grown to oppose him. When former South African President Nelson Mandela criticised Mugabe, Zambia, Botswana, Tanzania and even Angola, in the recent SADC meeting, openly demanded a transitional government to replace the present Mugabe regime. Is this a start to a revolution? Oh please, let’s not kid ourselves. The reason is not far to find. Despite South Africa being a different country from what it was earlier, unfortunately, the present South African President Mbeki is a die hard Mugabe supporter and would help him and many who are joining them.
