Robert Mugabe has been the leader of Zimbabwe in southern Africa since 1980 and is the country's only leader since it gained independent from Britain.

Famously called Africa's oldest leader, he was born in 1924 and assumed the office of the president in 1987. More than three decades ago.

He has been often criticized over allegations of corruption and crackdown of human rights.

But beside being arguable the oldest serving African president, Robert Mugabe is famous for his witty and sometimes unconventionally sarcastic quotes

TV/Movies / Veteran Actor - Zack Orji Returns To Nollywood After A Long Time Off by NOnlineGistBlog(m): 6:05pm On Sep 23, 2016
One of the veterans of Nollywood is back in action with better days ahead and a special surprise for his fans. His latest movie, in which he featured alongside top rated Nollywood actors is said to be one of the movies to make a difference in the movie industry this century.



Must have been ages since we heard anything about Zack Orji but sources are reporting that the dangerously handsome actor has been cooking something lowkey for his fans. Back in the days, when he appeared in a movie, it was a hit. back to back.. lol

So having his fans yearn for his appearance is an understatement, especially after he was seen on the set of the movie of the season; “The X-List.” The movie is said to feature some of Nollywoods big boys; including, IK Ogbonna, Davidson and some divas, Tamara Eteimo and other notable actors
