Here are some of them;<\/p>\n
“Some are saying ‘Mr Mugabe is old, so he should step down’… No! When my time comes, I will tell you.”\u00a0– 2014<\/em><\/p>\n “Only God who appointed me will remove me – not the MDC (opposition), not the British.”\u00a0– 2008<\/em><\/p>\n On coming to power<\/strong><\/p>\n Mugabe’s speech when Zimbabwe won independence was more conciliatory.<\/p>\n “It could never be a correct justification that because the whites oppressed us yesterday when they had power, the blacks must oppress them today.”\u00a0– 1980<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n On Britain, former colonial ruler<\/strong><\/p>\n “The British were brought up as a violent people, liars, scoundrels and crooks… I am told that (former British prime minister Tony) Blair was a troublesome little boy at school.”\u00a0– 2001<\/em><\/p>\n On gay people<\/strong><\/p>\n “Worse than pigs and dogs… Those who do it, we will say, they are wayward. It is just madness, insanity.”\u00a0– 2010<\/em><\/p>\n On gay marriage<\/strong><\/p>\n “(President Barack) Obama came to Africa saying Africa must allow gay marriages… God destroyed the Earth because of these sins. Weddings are for a man and a woman.”\u00a0– 2013<\/em><\/p>\n On Nelson Mandela<\/strong><\/p>\n “Mandela has gone a bit too far in doing good to the non-black communities, really in some cases at the expense of (blacks)… That’s being too saintly, too good.”\u00a0– 2013<\/em><\/p>\n On Hitler<\/strong><\/p>\n “I am still the Hitler of the time. This Hitler has only one objective, justice for his own people, sovereignty for his people, recognition of the independence of his people.<\/p>\n “If that is Hitler, then let me be a Hitler tenfold.”\u00a0– 2003<\/em><\/p>\n On his affair<\/strong><\/p>\n Before his first wife died in 1992, Mugabe started a relationship with Grace, whom he married in 1996.<\/p>\n “I wanted children and this is how I thought I could get them. I knew what I was doing and my wife knew.”\u00a0– 1998<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n On death<\/strong><\/p>\n False reports of Mugabe dying were a feature of his old age.<\/p>\n “I have died many times. That’s where I have beaten Christ. Christ died once and resurrected once. I have died and resurrected and I don’t know how many times I will die and resurrect.”\u00a0– 2012<\/em><\/p>\n On resigning<\/strong><\/p>\n “My decision to resign is voluntary on my part. It arises from my concern for the welfare of the people of Zimbabwe and my desire to ensure a smooth, peaceful and non-violent transfer of power that underpins national security, peace and stability,” he says in a resignation letter. –\u00a0November 21 2017<\/em>.<\/p>\n Will you miss Him?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Robert mugabe finally resigned on Tuesday.
