Unfortunately, this isn’t the good news that it ought to be. It isn’t as though Ian Smith’s Rhodesia will be restored anytime soon. Rather, Zimbabwe will get more of the same (or perhaps even worse) with Mugabe’s thuggish former ex-VP and right-hand-man Emerson Mangangwa in charge of the country. The only reason Mangangwa turned on his former leader is that Mugabe pushed him out to make room for his wife as heir to the throne.
That was my read on it as well; the party elders didn’t want their own “Winnie Mugabe” seizing power.
As for the whites, most of those that were willing to remain in Africa are already hard at work feeding neighboring countries - after those countries made generous concessions to lure them there to ply their trade.
Think Venezuela.......
It will get worse
“Rather, Zimbabwe will get more of the same (or perhaps even worse) with Mugabes thuggish former ex-VP and right-hand-man Emerson Mangangwa in charge of the country.”
He was the enforcer for Mugabe. His nickname was the “Crocodile” I think there might be a reason for that Hmmm. Oh well say good by to the old crooked “African” and say hello to the new crooked “African”.
