Zuma issues statement on Zim situation
2017-11-16
[NEWSDAY.CO.ZW] President Jacob Zuma, on behalf of SADC, has noted with great concern the unfolding political situation in the Republic of Zim-bob-we.

President Zuma has called for calm and restraint and has expressed hope that developments in Zim-bob-we would not lead to unconstitutional changes of Government as that would be contrary to both SADC and African Union
...a union consisting of 53 African states, most run by dictators of one flavor or another. The only all-African state not in the AU is Morocco. Established in 2002, the AU is the successor to the Organisation of African Unity (OAU), which was even less successful...
positions.

The President has urged the Government of the Republic of Zim-bob-we and the Zim-bob-we Defence Force to resolve the political impasse amicably and has urged the Zim-bob-wean Defence Force to ensure that the maintenance of peace and security in the country is not compromised.

SADC will continue to closely monitor the situation and remains ready to assist where necessary to resolve the political impasse in keeping with established SADC Protocols and processes.

I recommend the “https://www.iol.co.za/capetimes”. One of the articles under the “Africa” tab states “Johannesburg — When Zimbabwe’s generals moved against President Robert Mugabe on Wednesday, their action foreshadowed the potential end of more than just one political career. It echoed across a continent where the notion of the “big man” leader is defined equally by the lure of power in perpetuity and the risk that, one day, the edifice will crumble under the weight of its own decay”.
