It would be fair to say that Robert Mugabe, or Uncle Bob as we call him, isn’t the most loved leader in the world. This may have something to do with his alleged slaughtering of 20 000 Ndebeles, or plunging his countrymen into financial ruin. He also nabbed a couple of farms and made a few people feel unwelcome along the way. It seems you either love him or hate him, there’s not much middle ground here.
But, much to the dismay of many, he just keeps on trucking. Mugabe will turn 91 next month, and in a recent interview his sister shared some of his health tips. TimesLive reports:
He has always known that things like alcohol and smoking are debilitating and degrade the body,” Regina Gata, Mugabe’s only surviving sister said in an interview with the Sunday Mail.
“Even up to now, he exercises a lot … I always hear from Amai [Mother] Grace Mugabe that he exercises a lot everyday and he remains disciplined in this respect.”
It is also reported that he prefers to load up on veggies rather than red meat, which seems like a slap in the face to the Tim Noakes acolytes. We couldn’t reach Mugabe for a statement regarding the perils of eating carbs. Our guess is he would call carbs ‘the evil agents of the West’ and blame them for spreading cholera to the people of his country. He’s pretty much blamed everything else already, it may be all he has left.
