CHAMPION OF LAW AND ORDER
Date: 2000/04/25
Professor Isosceles Vilikazi of Nyamandhlovu, the well-known
inventor,
academic and political observer, today cancelled his scheduled
press
conference.
Ms Gladys Dongo, his devoted companion and press secretary,
explained that
the Professor liked to present the lighter side of things. Today,
however,
his heart was too heavy to speak.
It was reported on the news that more MDC supporters had been
beaten to
death. ZANU supporters were transported in buses and lorries to
start
occupying new farms.
Meanwhile, the Saturday Star arrived from South Africa. The
headline hailed
President Mugabe as "a champion of law and order." The
remark was
attributed to Mocambican President Joaquim Chissano, but
apparently had the
endorsement of South African President Thabo Mbeki.
It is believed that Professor Vilikazi has gone into seclusion,
unable to
believe that even the successor of the illustrious Nelson Mandela
has now
turned against the people of Zimbabwe.
