Robert Mugabe and Henry Olonga

Robert Mugabe the ruler autocrat of zibwabwe for the past 37 years and Henry olonga ,the first black cricketer to represent the free zibwabwe
Both epitome the spirit of the free zibwabwe nation and the world which won freedom from the whites who were otherwise brutalising the blacks and subjugating them into deprivation .
That under the guidance of once socialist Robert Mugabe the once food basket of Zibwabwe won its freedom .The first act of the young revolutionary Mugabe was to get rid of the less violent friend Joshua Nkomo from the party and the country .
Since establishing near supremacy he rod on the aspiration of the blacks to haVe their say on the food cultivation areas of the country .The whites have all the cultivating land under them and the New ruler supported mass histeria made the blacks take over the cultivating lands and later the Presidents ruling machine themselves took over the remaining .
The outrage followed worldwide and this alienated him to a pariah world over and made the president ti move inside his self made cage of Zibwabwe .
He was violent and a tin pot dictator .
Ruthlessly corrupt .
He was exactly doing what the govt against whom he fought was doing .
There were murmer of protest from blacks also .
Henry olonga ,the average cricketer who otherwise for the navigation programme,may ne the largest count if wides in an over stand with him , would never had attained National Cap ,sported a black  armband in a world cup match in 2003 to protest against Robert Mugabe .
The despots retribution was strong and swift .
Olonga had to leave the country and then the sport .He later become a member of a music band and settled in England .
May be Olonga chose to oppose the nemesis of the white England's enemy made his life somewhat easily settled in the english land.
Politics of the present .
Now the very person who made his life rebelling  against the repressive regime of the whites become another repressive machine over its citizens .Moreover his economic policies have made the countries currency worthless as waste paper .
As any  other tinpot dictators starts to believe he also started believing that, after him deluge ....
He become frail at 92 age and was nearing death
In order to come out the deluge his solution was To give a ruler from his own family ..His one time personal assistant cum soul stealer ,his second wife ,Grace ,some 40 years younger than him.
Grave selections
For making the road to power super clear he fired his long time ally and comrade , Emerson Mnangagwa from vice president ship.
The vice president  known by a nickname ,crocodile ,got support from other embeded old generation revolutionary autocrats to bring in the military and confine The old man into house detention .
The status of his wife is yet not clear .May be might have run away to some neighbouring  sanctuaries to Man the millions of corrupt money kept outside
May be she will rebuilt her life outside the country and will rue through out her life of the lost chance to govern as a queen on the subjugated masses ..
In a way Mugabe and Olonga has become the two sides of the same coin
One side represent the ruin within
Otherside the rebel who protested the ruin ,from within ...
Mugabe was once holding the post of olonga ..
Politics makes strange heroes and villains
The theatre of the absurd ..
