Read one report that his wife has left the country and another that she is also under house arrest
another coup, I just hope this will not end up like the one in Turkey where people got run over by tanks!
It reminds me of 19th century Japan. The emperor was so popular both sides claimed to be fighting for him, even though one side was leaded by the emperor himself, but of course, he was under bad influences according to the shogun.Lol. I am enjoying how the military is still adamantly maintaining that this is not a coup.
Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe was confined to his home as the military tightened its grip over government and civic institutions on Wednesday, widening operations to subdue what it called the country’s “degenerating” political establishment, though the military denied it was ousting the longtime leader
Don't they know that Mugabe is immortal?There's been a struggle going on between the vice president and Mrs Mugabe over who's going to take the reigns when Bob dies.
Probably related to that, and probably a purge by one of the two evil fuckers or the other.
Doubt it's anything to celebrate.
Would be happy to be wrong. It's about time Zimbaweans got something better.
Also, this all brings the likelihood of civil war in my country a bit closer... and I already suspected that it might happen in the next two years.
Literally anything else is better but I've also heard that one before. It would be impressive if you can make that country worse.Zimbabwe can't get much worse in terms of corruption and mismanagement. Who knows, maybe a military junta will be an improvement?
Two areas it can get much worse are violence (Zimbabwe has a ton of social problems, but not a great deal of violence) and, bizarrely, elementary education, though the latter will probably worsen because Zimbabwean teachers have been leaving the country over the last decade.Literally anything else is better but I've also heard that one before.

TV news anchor wears camo, tanks on streets and head of state detained for "safety". I think there is possibility of a coup.
