Bazungu must be laughing himself silly. All those wasted years trying to get rid of Bob when all they needed to do was speak to Grace. She did it all almost single handedly.

[Empedocles]

Bob is history.

Senile Mugabe, what a disgrace. Zimbabweans have waited for the gods to take away the man but the army had to help.

The 'criminal' guys around power just like the way Koinanges during Kenyatta senility and endless comas, couldn't read the signs of the time.

The army PR and organization is top notch. The army could be in power for very long, given the hollow state left by the Grace peddlers. Add the whites economic hawks - it is only good that London is also in a mess.

This could give Africans many ideas. No need to steal elections, repeat and torture lawyers in court.

Coup is like raila win it evaporated

Njamba, your babujee has been deposed. He has been detained and senior officials arrested.

He lost the plot when he tried to push his mistress as PORK. The same fate await M7 in Uganda.

The problem with a dictatorship there is no way out without losing it all..Mugabe should have handed over power 10 years ago to minion and retired. Museveni, Bashir, kagame and biya should be prepared to lose it all ..museveni can give it that ugly guy or some other nra person

I hope we don't end up with another Somalia. God help Zim.

[Dear Mami]

Say what you will about him but Moi was a very wise mzee. Fools like Mugabe and Museveni should have learnt from him.

[Dear Mami]

But Zims were suffering almost as much as Somalis anyway. So many of them are eking out a living in hard circumstances in neighboring countries, just like refugees. A very well educated lady I know was working as a maid in SA to fend for her people back home. I hope they go up from here, they were already very close to rock-bottom anyway.

[RV Pundit]

Exactly. Moi knew when to let go.

Zimbabwe is not Somali..their education level is way higher than that of camel riding Somalis

[Kadudu]

Which ugly guy? There are many ugly guys in Ug.

Moi did not let go freely. He was pressed to go by George BusH Snr. If it were not for the US we would be still be singing those kufuata nyayo songs today.

Exactly. Moi knew when to let go.

I'm sure many African dictators have been pressed to go by American Presidents including our uncle Bob in Zim. They don't listen. Moi made the choice to go and when his minion was defeated he did not use state power to hold on but conceded power.
