Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe’s family is well known for holidaying in Hong Kong and other luxurious places around the globe. The First Lady of Zimbabwe, Grace Mugabe, apparently lost her temper and beat up photojournalists with the help of her bodyguard outside Hong Kong’s luxurious hotel.
Wonder why First lady didn’t want to be in media limelight? She seems to have no qualms about being on luxurious holiday and spending spree while her nation Zimbabwe is battling extreme poverty, hunger, epidemic and hyperinflation. But yet it seems Grace Mugabe lost her calm and grace when she saw two photographers of Times.
Robert Mugabe’s thirty years of tyrannical rule has totally ruined Zimbabwe. He is the living epitome of self styled anarchist ruler who just doesn’t care for his country or people. All that matters to him is power and wealth. In past thirty years he has built an obscene palace in Harare and sponsored many a shopping trips for his forty years younger wife Grace. Compulsive shopper Grace Mugabe too doesn’t give a damn about Zimbabwe’s poor state. Obsessed with power and money the couple seems to forget that world is not Zimbabwe. Such an act of brutal assault of journalists of western media by First Lady and her bodyguard is unprecedented.
