Lecturer jailed for Mugabe 'donkey' insult
Lecturer jailed for Mugabe 'donkey' insult

A lecturer at a government university in Zimbabwe has been jailed for three months for labelling veteran President Robert Mugabe "a rotten old donkey," in the latest such case, lawyers say.

Bloemfontein - The ANC and Zimbabwe's Zanu-PF party were comrades-in-arms, Zanu-PF chairperson Simon Khaya Moyo said at the ANC's elective conference in Mangaung on Tuesday.

"We have a common liberation history and culture. We are one," he said delivering his party's message of support after the announcement of the ANC's leadership election results.

He congratulated the party's newly-elected top six leaders.

The ANC and Zanu-PF had an "impeccable" record of liberation.

"The two parties successfully led the demolition of apartheid in both Zimbabwe and South Africa," he said.

Meanwhile Mozambique’s ruling party, Frelimo, has urged the ANC and all liberation movements on the continent to work on preserving their liberation ties.

"We have a duty to preserve the record and ties of the liberation movement across the continent. That is very important," Ida Libongo said in her party’s message of support.

She praised the ANC for leading the liberation movement on the continent.

Nick Collis says... Tinavo , how closely do you follow the run up to the Zimbabwe election . You keep saying that Tsvangerai wants to delay elections as if he lacks confidence in his party's chances. The simple truth is that he lacks faith in Mugabes willingness to serve up a fre and fair election! Why would the MDC agree to a June 29 election when the electoral framework agreed upon in the GPA isn't close to being implemented. Is there a cleaned up voters roll, a credible electoral commission , an impartial security environment along with a level playing field for the media? Nope....didn't think so ! Would you contest an election with the dice loaded against you? Read the article...
