After being in power for nearly the longest time in the world, aged Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe says that anyone who has a problem with the time he has led the country should blame Zimbabweans not him.
Talking to Japanese media from Japan yesterday, Mugabe said that he has never forced himself to lead the country but has always been elected by Zimbabweans who believe in his empowerment agenda.
“If they have a problem with my stay in power they should go and ask Zimbabwean people. I don’t vote myself in, they do,” said Mugabe.
Mugabe added that Zimbabweans will not take lightly anyone who says that he must step down.
“You go to Zimbabwe now and ask them if I must step down. They will be very angry with you,” he said.
Asked if he will still consider contesting the 2018 elections at 94, Mugabe said that he has already been given the mandate to contest the elections by his party and he will contest.
Probed on his health and capability to lead the country now, in 2018 and beyond, Mugabe that as far as he feels he is still fit to continue as President.
“As you can see me here as President it means I am still very strong and will certainly see another two years to 2018.”
“What is two years? I will still be there and ready to lead another five years God willing.”

This hallucination at it’s best by the delusional Robert Gabriel of Zvimba. Of all the lections he contested and won since 1980 I do not remember any election results that were not contested hitherto. He mistakes the Japanese for down-syndrome patients who can believe such crap. No wonder they gave him a paltry $5 million in aid. What a desperate and shameful candidate of the grave who will leave all his hangers on and cheerleaders overcrowded in the ICC holding cells.

Unfortunately the Japanese media may have never known what happened in the countryside in 2008 when he lost by 73% according to his own admission. There so many blood letting scenes to keep this man in power and he says blame the zimbabweans?
Question is “Did the mandate come from the majority of Zimbabweans or Nikuv?”
