What will happen on the death of Mugabe?

When investigators got too close to one of the many ‘pies’ in which Mugabe had his thumb, he’d unleash ‘War Veterans’ as a dope dealer releases his pit bulls.

The difference between Mugabe’s ‘War Veterans’ and the Dope dealer’s pit bulls, is that pit bulls can be controlled.

After the first ‘unleashing’ of War Vets, they began to operate on their own initiative.

The Police and Army, deployed in obvious illegal and oppressive manners at Mugabe’s behest, now deploy themselves, Mugabe is a figurehead.

The old man can’t resign. Can’t dare to lose power. No opposition would turn a blind eye to what has been going on over the past fifteen years.

Once the ‘Bread basket’ of Africa, not merely able to feed itself, but other nations, once with an enviable educational system, and a strong economy, Zimbabwe has experienced the kind of devastation usually linked to natural disasters.

If Zimbabwe had suffered an Earthquake as did China, a Tsunami as did Thailand, and hurricane like Katrina, all within a one month period, it would not be as devastating as Mugabe.

About fifteen years ago, Robert Mugabe ceased being the great ‘liberator’ and became just another power hungry kleptocrat.

His followers joined him in pocket filling and used murder to silence anyone who dared speak. As time passed, those who fill their pockets no longer need Mugabe, for corruption needs no leader.

Zimbabwe will, unless immediate action is taken, descend into chaos at Mugabe’s death.

Simply put, as a figurehead he can still control ideas. As a corpse, the Kakistocracy will fight for survival.

The descent of Zimbabwe is attributed to Mugabe’s need to cling to power to hide his corruption.

Now, he will learn the danger of ‘riding the tiger’ for one is very liable to end up inside her.
