What is the problem? We now have aeroplanes which can take them back quicker than the ships used by their ancestors.
Robert Mugabe

The voice of Mr Bush and the voice of Mr Blair can't decide who shall rule in Zimbabwe, who shall rule in Africa, who shall rule in Asia, who shall rule in Venezuela, who shall rule in Iran, who shall rule in Iraq.

There are things one must do for oneself.
Robert Mugabe

People are free to campaign and they will be free to vote. There won't be any soldiers, you know, at the queues. Anyone who has the right to vote is free to go and cast his vote anywhere in his own area, in his own constituency.

We are no longer going to ask for the land, but we are going to take it without negotiating.
