This is London reported:
Her husband's presence at a UN summit of food has sparked an international outcry, but that hasn't diverted Grace Mugabe from indulging in her favourite pastime - shopping for shoes.Mrs. Mugabe only wears Farragamo.
The 44-year-old was whisked away from the luxury hotel where she, her husband and his entourage are staying to splash out on luxury footwear.
Mrs Mugabe has to make the most of her time in Rome, an EU travel ban means she might not be back any time soon.
Grace Mugabe (on left) leaves her hotel in Rome with her bodyguards at the start of her shopping trip. And on right, Mrs Mugabe tried to keep a low profile as she left a luxury shoe shop in Central Rome. She only will wear Farragamo. (This is London)
Meanwhile back home in Zimbabwe... The former breadbasket of Africa spirals to hell with an inflation rate running at an estimated 3,700%, an unemployment rate at 80%, and tens of thousands homeless.
Street children in the capital Harare find their sleep:
Secret Lives: Street children asleep. The glass-fronted building in the background is The Reserve Bank, Robert Mugabe's symbol of power. Harare, Zimbabwe. May 2007. (Guardian)
Secret Lives: Murambitsvina, also translated as 'clean up the filth' continues. Street children are picked up by police and dumped miles out of town to discourage them from being on the street. Harare. May 2007 (Guardian)
One textbook between four children.
"This school has met its government targets of providing one text book for every four of its students."
(Sokwanele Gallery)
Not to mention... The Mugabe regime is arresting the opposition members, banning their rallies and suspending aid groups from operating.
But, some people are managing just fine.

This is what the prophet of the messiah warned us about. He spoke of how "white greed" would enter the black mans heart. Mugabe is been caught up by the white devil, following the teachings of white people in history. It is not the black mans fault for being misled by America-KKK and the white greed of the West.
ReplyDeleteThis man and his wife need to be healed of "white greed!" They need to "eat less" and take upon their shoulder the messiah's words to remind them the chosen church of exodus, of black Africans should always listen to he who knows the ways of the black christ, to throw off the chains of the false white masters that have taught them the evil ways of "white greed."
Hallowed be thy name Obama, for ye have shown us the light. And it was prophesied long ago, that a child would be born out of Africa and he would "heal the planet."
Glory be to thee Obama. For your "time is now" and only you can heal the black man from the evils of white satan.
Disclaimer: all words above are used in jest, not to be taken seriously, Obama is not the messiah, a prophet, nor was his arrival prophesied out of Africa and neither am I a protologist, nor ever considered being a transgender. All the above is an abomination unto the Lord. Smile :)
Thank you Jimmy Carter, for ensuring the triumph of evil in Rhodesia! I wonder who will be Obama's Mugabe?
