Mugabe Speaks Peace



President of Zimbabwe Robert Mugabe
As Zimbabwe prepared for a possible presidential election in spring 2012, Robert Mugabe remained in office in a tenuous power-sharing government with his longtime rival, Morgan Tsvangirai. Harare, President Robert Mugabe on Wednesday urged Zimbabweans to shun violence ahead of elections he insists be held this year, in his first public appearance since a new wave of worry about his health. "We are going to elections and troubles have already started. This is happening not only parties versus parties but within parties as well," he said in an hour-long speech at Harare's biggest stadium. "All our political leaders should encourage their supporters to promote the spirit of peace and tranquillity through social dialogue," he said.  The speech to mark Zimbabwe's 32nd anniversary of independence from Britain was the first public appearance by 88-year-old Mugabe since he returned from Singapore last week. That trip sparked new worries about his health, amid reports that he has advanced prostate cancer. Mugabe has repeatedly brushed off concerns about his health. http://www.news24.com/Africa/Zimbabwe/Mugabe-calls-for-violence-free-election-20120418
Would this peace that he is talking about bring difference in Zimbabwe or it will make things worse?  The old Mugabe should just focus on his health because his only left with a short period of time to live.  People of Zimbabwe need freedom to survive, because they have been in pain for so many years. Enough is Enough.

  1. Its about time Mugabe leaves everything to others, his health must be the serious concern not politics anymore, I mean he is old enough to go for another round as the president. No matter what he must be dethroned and I am sure that some of the Zimbabweans currently living in South Africa will finally go home when Mugabe leaves presidency

  3. I think they will go back home, although it wont be everyone one, but majority will go. The poor Zimbabwens are just scared of poverty and hunger.
