A conversation with Prime Minister Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, about the progress and the problems in turning his African revolution into a new African nation.
One of the greatest political philosophers this continent has ever had. I don't know why he decided to change in the mid 90's, if he remained like this, i think Zimbabwe was gonna be African powerhouse for sure. Thank you for wisdom.
Personally I feel it was people who made his circle who spoilt things and his name was dragged under water.He was a great man indeed l will forever respect him.
@@babelmasawu7491 so ya telling the world Zanu Pf never used to terrorize citizens, torture or kill people before Grace came into the picture. I don’t know how old you are but I’m sure you don’t understand the real reasons for the “Unity Accord “ ( if you even heard about it), I am sure according to you Grace was the First Lady then.Oh tell me by the time Grace and Robert started hu shamwari hwavo hechikunya nguwo how many terms or years had lapsed? Fellaz Mugabe was an evil detector who was power hungry and full of sugar honey ice tea. Say what you can to paint him a benevolent honorable man and a saint guess what, he ain’t because his workers suggest otherwise and the effects of his selfishness and untamed behavior is reality that millions are living with every second of our lives. Mugabe itsvina yemunhu.
Intelligence to the core, this man was great man, only problem was he was surrounded by a wrong team. From this interview you can see he had a dream, if only the African leaders can learn not to be self centered, a lot if change could come about.
He was good, and then turned into a monster against his own people the more he stayed in power. Typical of all African dictators. Take an example of Museveni of Uganda, Mobutu of Zaire, Omar Bashir of Sudan. The list goes on and on.
Tinashe Kapfunde bullshit. He dedicated his life to staying in power. He didn’t care about our freedom. He released dogs and water canons on the masses like Smith did. His ZRP ichirova vanamai vedu because they were exercising their constitutional rights to protest. He was just a black Ian Smith without the ability to build a great economy. Bob was not loyal to Zimbabwe. Just to ZANU PF. Our people were dying of hunger while his zenzas of kids were washing their hands in $5000US/ Bottle Ace of Spades champagne. Fuck outta here man.
@QhaweMadonko I learnt From Donald Trump, he said Putin is smart, but the problem is not that he is smart, the problem is our leaders are dumb. Are you that kind of person who acknowledges that your enemy is smart than your father? Look, I used to tell my friends that I have no quarrel with President Mugabe, when he was in jail 10yrs why was my father not in there with him? Then I learnt he didnt even go to the war. If your father was a true hero he should have been the president, why are you not Chamisa today? You play it safe right? then your kids tomorrow will be saying Chamisa is the devil, no thats a wrong address, where was your father, where are you today for your children tomorrow? We often see the evils and mistakes done by those trying while we are sitted folding our hands. We are worse and useless than those people.
Thanking the Almighty God for this conversation, it was good then in the 1980’s as seen here in this interview as compared to nowadays. I pray for Zimbabweans to forgive and reconsider reconciliation and forgiveness with those whom may have been some misunderstandings. The good Lord help. It is better to build than continue to destroy each other. May the good Lord bless us all.
I thank our former intelligent legend President Robert Mugabe for keeping Zimbabwe a CHRISTIAN NATION till the time of his death. 80% are Christians in Zimbabwe and I pray that Zimbabweans will use their Christian Faith to build Zimbabwe. Love, Joy, Peace, Gentleness, Selflessness, Unity and Hope for the future will be bricks that can make Zimbabwe a bread basket for Southern Africa again in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
I wish The Late President Robert Mugabe, a birthday today the 21st of February, 2023. Thanking God for his life and all what he did on Planet Earth that which was good. Examples; keeping Zimbabwean as a Christian Nation thus keeping Christian values that would be followed by those in his place and all Zimbabweans from generation to generation.
These were great journalists of all times. Very professional and their research were well done before engaging any interviewee. Dr. Robert Mugabe was a great leader during his initial years of leadership. I don't know what changed him midway.
IMUWAHEN ODEH apparently eloquence does not build great economies. I lived through it all from war to freedom and I can tell you this man toward the end treated us worse than Smith ever did.
If only you knew, how brutal was he, you wouldn't want to even listen to his speech. This people their words are / were sweet but their actions are / were totally different. This mugabe you praise killed more than 40 000 civilians of the Ndebele tribe unarmed and here you are praising him nxaaa!
From the look of things RG had a genuine intention towards Zimbabwe and this is evident by his reign upto late 90s. When the serious challenge to his throne was mounted by Morgan he then got lost completely for he was completely blinded by his love for power
In the context of leadership ..he was a great Leader indeed..wow l rate him from the standpoint of the level of challenges he overcome ..the level of system he breaks ..
RG was born a leader, no one will replace him. He refused to be a puppet of other leaders around the Globe, unfortunately he end up being a puppet of his Party.
The platform is Pan African hence it seeks to portray any African leader in a sweet context despite whatever. He is the only president I have known for my whole life time before a coup took place. Be kind to me when I say he failed us as a nation beside him being a hero of many in Afrika. He had excellent oratory skills which never masked some chararacter in him which destroyed our beloved nation.
A great field warrior can also lead politically but by the wisdom of that time and era. What we are seeing here is a leader that was fearless and seek only for the betterment of his people during this independence. However a lion must know when it is time to provide guidance and raise new leaders without fear of not holding the power at all times.
Mugabe led with a brilliant mind but Mandela with a humbled heart. Greed can make a very intelligent person foolish. Mandela was a man of integrity and Mugabe was paradoxical, a snake in the grass, very wise in words but folly in actions.
@Royal1 it's either your are British or American or just a victim of misleading media. Mugabe fought for Africa till the day he died, he never changed despite the economic sabotage from the West.
My Dad was in the Air force in the 80s and he told me that the British officers had video mobile phones at that time talking to their generals in the UK. Most of this technology that's out here Today has already been used by the Military its reverse engineered.
Zimbaboons would in their "small way" add to pressures of international community but today SA has to carry a large burden of zim thrash and not to help in a "small way".
@@Munyabrwn An idiot full of honorary degrees, he had economics degrees but he over-printed bank notes to give to his supporters and caused ten trillion percent inflation, destroying the national currency.
@@couragemarcus9760 How was he articulate without being intelligent⁉️ Intelligence defines ones articulation especially in a foreign language unless you're a native English speaker‼️ 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Don't forget the sanctions that has been cast upon Zimbabwe which affected the people when just because people cant get them own way and to tell another man how to run there country
I think they would have supported different groups to fight against Mugabe in Zimbabwe, because this is what Europeans do when things are not going their way. It was them that helped to ruin his country| that he took back from illegal setters.

Mugabe never changed. He upheld his disdain for Western imperialism to his very last breath.
I have no words to describe this idiot that y’all saluting and find praiseworthy.

A great man and principled man who didn't know when to pass the baton.
If he had passed the baton. The globalist would have still destroyed Zimbabwe.
Great man? A complete idiot!
He got selfish. ZimbabME
He was right in saying that there was no one fit to succeed him 😝😝😝😁🤞🏿🤞🏿
i admire that man of wisdom !
great & courageous , determinate African leader
respects & love From Morocco !
RIP &God bless you Mr President Mugabe !
Amen
He has infinite wisdom by the way he expounds his dream
Yes he was. Look at what they are focussing on...
Had he carried on like he began As Post independent Prime Minister,Zimbabwe could be a great economic giant in Black Africa
These were great journalists of all times. Very professional and their research were well done before engaging any interviewee. Dr. Robert Mugabe was a great leader during his initial years of leadership. I don't know what changed him midway.
The British failed him in their focus on prioritizing white lives.
Wise,éloquent,self-confident and farsighted leader.
Mugabe is an African lion.
Baba Robert Mugabe is a great Pan African leader and hero.
A great Africanist
He was a great demolisher - he demolished Zimbabwe beyond repair
Borne to lead really but his people don't know who he is, for me he is greater than many African leaders
I loved this man's Charisma..that's a fact❤
To my opinion there are two greatest Presidents in Africa Robert Mugabe and Yoweri Museveni
Both of them started very well but both ended/are ending badly because they chose to stay in leadership for too long and veered towards dictatorship.
And Mandela was what?
Very eloquent
IMUWAHEN ODEH apparently eloquence does not build great economies. I lived through it all from war to freedom and I can tell you this man toward the end treated us worse than Smith ever did.
so was Hitler and Stalin. What a low standard to hold for a leader. Eloquence.
@@chrisv.noire.6388 Stalin did a lot of good
One of the misunderstood men in history. 🙏
A few of us understood him very well but most drowned in misleading narratives created by western media
The killer the destroyer
@@clarencesibanda3333 🤣
His enemies went for him. But the great man held his own
A racist you mean? Because that's what he was.
Relationship between Countries/Nations ARE Based on INTERESTS(economically and political influences).. Not on FRIENDSHIP...
Our hero
The only man I know in African history 🙏💯
You need to know more (about) men in African history. Men like Kwame Nkrumah, Patrice Lumumba, Thomas Sankara, to name but a few.
This was the legend...
What a Great Man
spastic

A classic man to learn from

I wish we could have more of Mugabe species in africa.
