You must be wondering what this list is all about. It is basically a wish list to celebrate Mugabe's 85th birthday that is allegedly being organised by the Zanu party, of whom obviously he is the leader.

All this despite the fact that millions of people in Zimbabwe rely on international food, unemployment reaches 94 %, while cholera and famine are widespread in the country. Mugabe always celebrates his birthday lavishly and last year only, 1.2 million dollars were spent for his birthday celebrations, yet he does not have the finances to help out the people of his own country. When people know no shame...
