Is Robert Mugabe wrong for having a nice palacial crib? Pics of mansion

Dated and tacky but not beyond salvaging

Origins: In the mid-2000s, the South African press had been reporting for several years that Robert Mugabe, the president of Zimbabwe, was building a personal luxury retirement villa just outside the Zimbabwean capital of Harare. A 2003 article described the in-progress mansion thusly:

The house with its 25 bedrooms in Borrowdale Brook Lane, an upmarket suburb in northern Harare, is being completed in haste because Mugabe allegedly wants to move in there when he retires.

The retirement villa is about three times the size of Mugabe's current official residence and offices. Each of the rooms in the house apparently has a different theme, for example an Arabic room, Chinese rooms and a section in the French style. It is not known whether there is a British room.



In 2008, the photographs displayed above began circulating in e-mail forwards that described them as pictures of Mugabe's completed retirement villa. However, even in the absence of additional identifying information about the source of the images, the claim that they were photographs of Robert Mugabe's

mansion was doubtful given that they had also been claimed over the years as depicting the lavish digs of a number of other celebrities and political figures around the world, such as former Nigerian military ruler
Ibrahim Babangida, Indian film star Shahrukh Khan, Universal Church of the Kingdom of God founder Edir Macedo, former Secretary of Health Care of Azerbaijan, and (in 2010) Senator Manny Villar of the Philippines.

In fact, these photographs actually depict a home half a world away from Zimbabwe, a mansion in the tony Bel Air section of Los Angeles that has been extensively photographed inside and out because it is sometimes used as the site of location shooting for television programs and movies.

Mugabe Mansion

The Chinese stuff is well known in the Zimbabwean press and it also includes Malaysian donors because he was friends with Mahathir a former PM of that country.

Mugabe is what every fake Coli militant aspires to be.

Cuz he gave the boot to white farmers and landowners and placed the land under Black control via either the state or Black individuals. He's far from perfect, in fact he's corrupt, however his heart is in the right place on land grabbing.

I don't think he has black people in mind breh. The people who suffer most there are black. I'm half Zimbabwean, and many people there (a lot of whom are well educated people) are pretty disgruntled and would probably take the cac farmers over Mugabe at this point.

Edit: Edited for some refinement. I posted drunk after a night out.

He isn't wrong for having a mansion.

He is wrong for stealing money and resources for his political buddies, stifling democracy and sinking an economic system for some of the most skilled and literate people in Africa.

How did mugabe rise to power

To make a complicated story simple and short, Mugabe was the leader of a Marxist guerrilla army which attempted to overthrow the white supremacist regime of Ian Smith's Rhodesia. When Rhodesia was forced to the negotiation table, Mugabe obtained the office of Prime Minister as part of the peace deal. From then on, he's been trying to consolidate his power (often using violence, undemocratic means against his opponents) and that of his political party.
