    • Uncle Bob looks great at 92 (yes 92 this month). This is in sharp contrast to Super Ken, who at one year younger than Mugabe has gone wrinkly, senile and completely out of the spotlight. He too would have loved to rule forever, just like Mugabe, so that he could afford some hair dye, artificial teeth, red-blood cell replacement etc…etc. Zambians, however, had other plans on their minds and booted him out of power in 1991. The same fate is awaiting the drunkard at State House on 11th August 2016.

    • @suntwe wa suntwe – why cant you just check your facts before you post some of these comments? there is only about 67 days difference between mugabe and kaunda which is a two full months and 5 days difference considering that 1924 was a leap year as 2016 is. Mugabe is older of course. they were both born in 1924. one on april 28 and the other on february 21.

    • It’s a Urine Drainage Bag and Leg Bag, just in case he has to go. The man has been unwell fro a long time now. It’s the same thing President Sata use to use.

    • Max, Mugabe might be wearing a bullet proof vest but a good marksman will aim for that big fat head of his. Therefore rendering the vest useless!!!!!

    • Looks like he wearing something/a brass to hold his body upright. His age is similar to KK and KK is moving like an old man but man mugabe looks 55years old.

  1. LEAVE ONE OF THE GREATEST SONS OF AFRICA ALONE. MUGABE IS ONE OF THE GREATEST SONS OF AFRICA. HE IS GIVING PEOPLE WHAT WOULDN’T HAVE BEEN GIVEN (LAND) TO ZIMBABWEANS. ARE YOU SO BRAIN-WASHED BY THE WESTERN MEDIA? WHAT IS INDEPENDENCE WITH WHOLE LAND IN THE HANDS OF FOREIGNERS ONLY?

    • Typical Africa
      You mean you would rather have land and not your rights and freedom. I mean even the right to life.Do you know how many Zimbabweans have not been given land because they were not there to receive it?Have you ever heard of the Matebeleland massacre.Either you very prejudiced or you are just one of those 24 carat *****s who don’t even read.

    • spoken like a true pan africanist. You sir are awake to the machinations of these imperialists and foreign invaders. Mugabe might just be the last true son of africa alive. he might have his flaws but he sure has a passion for Africa.

    • @mailoni – what good are your rights when you have no land, nativity on which you can practice your freedoms. Freedoms and rights are developed on the basis of a peoples locality; which in this case is the land. the land defines the freedoms which you have or ought to have. it is for this reason that the rights and freedoms enjoyed in zambia are different from those enjoyed in ghana or guinea bissau. the locality in this case ,country,determines what rights you have. these rights stem off of a peoples culture and ways of life, thereby requiring laws which try to assure the preservation of these cultures.And where do cultures come from. Cultures are largely moulded by the land e.g lozi culture as opposed to tumbuka or bemba. Land itself is your freedom and rights advocate.

    • Peter, Zagaze. Tell them!

      I’m glad I’m not the only one here who holds Mugabe in high esteem. Love him or hate him but you have to admit he is the only rabbit on the continent that did not scamper away from the fox like many others but has defended territory and chased away the fox.

      Remember that even young David still had enemies in Israel among his own people when he slew Goliath the enemy of the nation. To non-patriots, self-preservation comes first while national-guardianship is what the patriot lives for.

  2. picture 24 – African servitude posture. Bent neck to show non aggression. this gene has been passed on from generation to generation since the ill treatment of blacks by whites. our fore fathers learnt that to look non threatening to the whites would spare your back from the master cracking his whip. And how do you look non threatening to the whites? kukontama bakalamba!!! And so this thing has remained in us subconsciously. we dont even realise we do it, but we do. if you dont believe me, observe the behaviour of most zambians when they are in the company of white people especially if they are meeting for the first time. Afterwards, we gain a bit of confidence and our subconscious motors tell us not to bend our heads as we feel we can trust this bugga a little bit more. in short we get…

  3. Picture 22 POA Repeal? Just lock them up and throw away the key Bob says, picture 26 Aaaaah I don’t think that’ll work in Zambia.

    Pictures pictures 27 to 29 what it a smart President we have, a real smart sharpshooter! Pic 30, Cool and down with it!

  4. Yes Mugabe has his past deeds and skeletons to reckon with BUT, the man has delivered to the Zimbabweans-including the whites, that most important of all possessions a person should have-PERSONAL LAND, a piece of your country-PERMANENCE! What WOULDN’T one do WITH LAND.I assure you the white Zimbabwean farmers that we borrowed will trek back to Zimbabwe WHEN conditions improve there again.They will have land here in Zambia AND in Zimbabwe.Zambia is DISPOSSESSING ITSELF OF LAND and parcelling it out to foreign “investors” permanently.How many Zambians OWN A PIECE OF THEIR VERY OWN LAND?Mugabe and Zimbabweans are respected by the western AND other countries for their PRINCIPLES AND COURAGE. What happened to IAN SMITH with his war crimes and against humanity in Zambia, Mozambique?THINK!

  5. First time I am seeing an MP in Livingstone dressed appropriately for inspections, whatever he was inspecting with the Town Clerk.. at least no ma suit..lol…
