On the eve of the one candidate Zimbabwe presidential ‘election’ on Friday, Robert Mugabe has made a statement against the African Union leaders and the rest of the world. Robert Mugabe rejected calls to postpone the election, saying he will not be dictated to by anyone, not even the African Union.
“I know some people are gearing up for an attack on Zimbabwe. I want to see any country which will raise its finger in the African Union, our elections have been Free.” said Robert Mugabe
Addressing a campaign rally in Chitungwiza, Robert Mugabe said – “we have some of our brothers in Africa making that call (to postpone the vote), pushing us to violate our own law and we have refused to do so, we are sticking to our law.”
A security committee of the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC), which includes the current chairperson of the Africa Union Tanzania, on Wednesday called for the elections to be postponed, saying Robert Mugabe’s re-election as the only candidate could lack legitimacy because of the use of violence.
Mugabe said there are countries in Africa who have had worse elections and their presidents are still in office. Mugabe want to see those African leaders who will raise a finger against him, and see if their hands are clean.
But is Robert Mugabe admitting that the conditions in Zimbabwe are not conducive for a Free and Fair election? But why does he keep talking of a presidential election when he has openly said only ‘God’ can remove him from power?
