| | Born in 1924, Robert Gabriel Mugabe was educated in missionary schools and received the first of his seven degrees from South Africa's Fort Hare University. | | | Mr Mugabe has made much of his devout Christianity, but his marriage to a former private secretary in 1996 - 41 years his junior and with whom he already fathered two children - raised more than a few eyebrows. | | | And with defeat for President Mugabe in the constitutional referendum, his long stated aim of handing over large tracts of fertile land from whites to blacks looks no nearer to being resolved. |

| | Mugabe is not one for admitting to error, but a week before the election he held a rally in Bulawayo, where he confessed to having made the great blunder of his political life, when, on assuming power in 1980, he gave his famous speech, seeking reconciliation with whites. | | | It was the first time Mugabe had been rejected by voters, and, with parliamentary elections looming in June of 2000, the assault on whites was accompanied by a less publicized but often more brutal campaign of violence against black oppositionists and sympathizers. | | | Comrade Mugabe, as he likes to be called, was running for reëlection when he signed POSA into law, in January, and his message to voters could not have been clearer: Put up and shut up, or else. |

| | Satire - Mugabe fucks up again |
| | Expensive wars, lawlessness, extreme homophobia, petrol cut-offs and blithe reverse racism may mean something to most world leaders, but to Robert Mugabe, it's just another election campaign. | | | Left-wingers remain infuriated by the fact that Mugabe continues to spend a million American dollars a day fighting a futile war in the Congo while his own country starves. | | | I organised them a shack on someone's farm and they'll have their freedom until I arrest them for tresspassing after the elections!" |
