If they didn't do it under Mugabe it's hardly likely to happen.
Did Winnie Mandela move to Zimbabwe?
Agreed. What a dumb ass...
“He is a fool for going back.”
I’m afraid you’re right. Mugabe may be gone but the envious, incompetent people that put him in power and supported him are still there.
Robert Smart’s middle name must be “Notso”
