Mugabe denies links to SA mansion, bunker
2012-06-21
[Daily Nation (Kenya)] Zim-bob-we President Bob Muggsy Mugabe
Octogenarian President-for-Life of Zim-bob-we who turned the former Breadbasket of Africa into the African Basket Case...
 has denied reports that he is building a luxurious mansion with an underground bunker in neighbouring South Africa.

According to weekend reports, the KwaDukuza municipality in South Africa obtained a court order to stop the Zim-bob-wean ruler's former personal pilot from constructing the R200 million mansion citing environmental concerns.

Retired Air Vice Marshal Robert Mhlanga was rumoured to be building the mansion on be behalf of President Mugabe. A private newspaper, The Standard speculated that the Zim-bob-wean ruler wanted to use it as a "bolt hole."

But President Mugabe's spokesperson Mr George Charamba dismissed the reports. "There is no substance to that," he told the paper.

"The only relationship between them (President Mugabe and (Mr Mhlanga) is the name Robert and that they are Zim-bob-weans."
