It seems that the game is up for Zimbabwe ’s Robert Mugabe, one of the most notorious sit-tight leaders in Africa. Speaking of the situation in the country, a writer, Dingani Masuku, said: “Since I was born about 40 years ago in my homeland Zimbabwe, the only leader I have known is Robert Mugabe. Growing up in the marginalised region of Matabeleland in southern Zimbabwe, I became politically aware at the age of five due to the atrocities perpetrated against residents of the region by the Mugabe government. But he stayed too long in power and began to oppress the same people on whose behalf he had supposedly obtained power. Nevertheless, the “bloodless coup” in Zimbabwe must remain bloodless.
