President Robert Mugabe had the social media talking when he appeared in a video in Morocco to be struggling to keep a proper gait.
REPORT BY JOHN MOKWETSI
He was in Morroco recently attending the COP22 climate change summit.
It appeared, he had taken leaf from Stephen King’s 1996 novel Green Mile turned years later into a blockbuster movie, in which the last walk by John Coffey to the electric chair was as depressing as it was saddening.
Mugabe on occasions appeared unaware where he was or if he at all needed to be there much to the amusement of the United Nation’s Secretary General, Ban Ki Moon whose glances together with his delegation, are priceless.
The president, who has on occasions succumbed to the force of gravity in full glare of the public, is being as cautious as the nation is about bond notes. For a moment his eyesight appeared blurred as he misses the etiquette handshake.
Despite all the signs of frailty due to 93 years of living, Zanu PF provinces recently stood up in awe of the man some in the liberation struggle party equate to Jesus, and proclaimed emphatically that he will be standing in the 2018 Presidential elections.
