Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe, who will extend his 33-years in power on Thursday, once quipped he would rule his country until he turned 100. Taking the solemn appeal to a deity for a fresh five-year term at 89-and-a-half, he is getting closer to reaching that goal.
The inauguration ceremony at a 60,000-seater sports stadium is seen as a show of power to confer legitimacy following yet another disputed election victory. Furthermore, expressed political scientist Eldred Masunungure that it can be read as a farewell event for Mugabe. It strikes towards remembering one of Jesus's Last Supper.
That's truly a strong source of inspiration for all of us to experience such a man with bold determination and power of wisdom!
