Robert Mugabe Is Said To Be Fighting For His Life In A Singapore Hospital by VoodooDoll(m): 8:44pm On Apr 09, 2012 |
Robert Mugabe is said to be fighting for his life in a Singapore hospital. Zimbabwean dictator Robert Mugabe is said to be fighting for his life in a Singapore hospital. According to the Zimbabwe Mail a senior official of the 88-year-old's ZANU-PF party, said the President was undergoing intensive treatment in Singapore and that some members of his family had joined him after boarding a chartered private jet on Saturday. The alarm was raised yesterday when the government postponed a cabinet meeting set for today. Mugabe spokesman George Charamba said in a statement: 'The Chief Secretary to the President and Cabinet, Dr Misheck Sibanda, wishes to inform all members of cabinet that sitting has been moved from Tuesday, April 10, to Thursday, April 12, 2012.' Mugabe had been in Singapore to oversee his daughter Bona's enrolment in a postgraduate course at Singapore University. A U.S. diplomatic cable, from June 2008, released by WikiLeaks last month suggested Mugabe has prostate cancer that has spread to other organs. It also stated he was urged by his physician to step down in 2008, but he has remained in the job. The news comes amid reports Mugabe had agreed to hand over power to his feared Defence Minister Emmerson Mnangagwa. Yesterday The Tehran Times said Mugabe had entered into a 'gentlemen's agreement' to hand over power to Mnangagwa, 65, who assisted in orchestrating Mugabe's battle against white rule in the seventies. Mugabe appointed the former head of the Zimbabwean Central Intelligence Organisation as his campaign manager by Mugabe during the 2008 presidential election. He was widely blamed for the shocking brutality after his rival, Morgan Tsvangirai, edged ahead in the first round of voting. Mnangagwa also received notoriety for his role in the brutal crushing of the Zapu party in the 1980s, in which thousands of civilians were killed. The Zimbabwe Mail quoted a British-based Zimbabwe analyst, who wished to remain anonymous: 'Mugabe's health impacts entirely on Zimbabwe's political landscape. Everything revolves around his health and his age Source: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2127394/BREAKING-NEWS-Robert-Mugabe-reportedly-fighting-life-Singapore-hospital-undisclosed-illness.html |
