I picked up this article from TimesLive.co.za and it's had me in stitches for a week. It has the former Sir Robert of Zwimba rather meekly attempting to divorce himself from any form of British influence in his life during a graduation speech at the University of Great Zimbabwe. It is absolutely hilarious when the notes that
"..At the graduation, he wore a sash, robe and mortarboard, academic regalia used in some of Britain's most conservative universities."
Fantastic stuff! The author further goes on to state that;
"..Until Western travel and banking bans were imposed on Mugabe and his party leaders to protest human and democratic rights violations about a decade ago, Mugabe regularly visited the upscale Harrods department store in London's Knightsbridge district and Saville Row in Mayfair, the home of Britain's best bespoke tailors."
Brilliant read...
