South African President Jacob Zuma has sent congratulations to Zimbabwe’s new president.
Mr Zuma did not attend the ceremony in Zimbabwe, instead taking part in pre-arranged talks with the leader of Angola.
In his media briefing afterwards, he said:
We congratulate President Mnangagwa on his inauguration and wish him well as he steers the country through this transition period.We wish to emphasise the need for the maintenance of peace and stability in the country, which I discussed with President Mnangagwa earlier this week before he headed back to Harare.”
COMMENTS
Yes, but Dear Jacob still tried to prevent the people of Zimbabwe from getting justice. South Africans be warned – you have your very own Mugabe in the Making in the form of Zuma. South Africa has done the Zimbabwean people no favours when it has come to liberty and justice. Mbeki first and then Zuma. Zuma also wanted to be King. If Zuma was really behind Zimbabwe he would have come to the party.
