Mugabe Refused to Sell Africa and as a result, Africa was Set Against Him
One of the biggest problems that we as Africans are having today is that we are so uninformed. And even when we are informed, we are actually misinformed.
It simply baffles me how the majority of Africans don’t know that Zimbabwe’s suffering is actually as a result of Robert Mugabe fighting for Zimbabwe.
Zimbabwe is suffering because of the constant sanctions the British and the American governments kept levying on Zimbabwe. This sanctions came about simply because Mugabe took back the land that the colonizers stole from the Zims, and returned it to the Zims – who are by the way the rightful owners of the land. So to tell Zimbabwe and the rest of Africa that if you mess with one white person – even if you are fighting for what is rightfully yours – you mess with the rest of us. The American and the British governments have been taking turns sanctioning Zimbabwe relentlessly. From Bush to Blair, and yes, y’all’s beloved Obama. And for those of you who don’t know, as we speak this very moment, Zimbabwe is under sanctions imposed by the Trump administration. Simply because they are still trying to pressure now President Emmerson Mnangagwa to return the land to the colonial thieves.
But most of our African people don’t even know this bit of information because BBC, CNN, VOA, and all your other beloved western media have not told you about it.
My only problem with Mugabe is that his hatred for western imperialism eventually surpassed his love for his people. The passion with which he hated western imperialism, caused him to forget why he fought so hard to liberate his people in the first place. Nevertheless, with all his flaws, he literally stood and fought for the rights of not only Zimbabweans, but for all Africans.
Yes, when Mugabe took lands away from colonizers, they imposed economic sanctions on Zimbabwe and warned all African countries not to do business with Zimbabwe so that the Zimbabwe’s economy will breakdown for our brothers and sisters in that country go hungry.
As obedient slaves, we obeyed our masters and we all help to breakdown the economy of Zimbabwe.
After all, what is the quantity and value of export that a small Zimbabwe need to sustain her economy for which the 52 African country cannot absorb if the West do not want to do business with Zimbabwe?
Mugabe’s action was a rare opportunity for Africa to announce our true independence and capability to stand in unity to support one another. Sadly, we missed this opportunity and we chose to be agents and catalysts to aid our own destruction. African failed Mugabe and Zimbabwe but more significantly, we failed ourselves.
If only one or two more African leaders were courageous enough to have his back, Africa would have been a better place today. But since none whatsoever had the balls to, the great Robert Gabriel Mugabe rode the storm alone until the end. Western imperialism might have indoctrinated some of you to see him as the evil dictator who destroyed Zimbabwe, thereby absolving themselves from what they did to Zimbabwe, and the rest of Africa.
But to me, Robert Mugabe will always remain The Lone Wolf Of Africa. Because in this modern times, he faced the forces of evil that seek to destroy us, all by himself. For that, truly, and for always he remains The Lone Wolf Of Africa.
With that, I thee bid adieu. And may you Rest in Everlasting Peace.
