November 26, 2017 'Gold was a blast for former Zimbabwean president Robert Mugabe, who contracted substantial liquidation and a series of lifetime benefits before resigning. The Guardian writes online, stating that the exact sum is not known, but it is certainly not less than ten million dollars, five of which suffered and the rest in the coming months. The 'pension' will be equal to 150 thousand dollars for him and half, always for life, for the extravagant and expensive wife, the 52 year-old Grace, nicknamed for this Gucci Grace.

The Mugabe family, who will continue to live in the boundless Blue Roof property in Harare, will be paid for medical treatment, domestic staff, security and travel abroad. In addition to immunity, the agreement negotiated on convulsive days prior to the abandonment of power after 37 years of unchallenged 'reign' includes the guarantee that all properties of the extended family will not be touched under any circumstances.

The golden comforts in which Mugabe lives are nothing new. But in a country where the average life is 60 years, the unemployment rate exceeds 80% and the local currency no longer exists due to out-of-control inflation (replaced by the US dollar and the South African rand), which has even more effect. the millionaire liquidation of the 93-year-old former president. He shouldn't have missed the rope, Fidelis Mukonori, a Catholic priest who has known Mugabe for decades and who has been a mediator in the negotiations that led to his resignation, revealed. He knew he had reached the "end of the road", said Mukonori and, under the immense pressure of the last few days as president, he sought a gradual and "quiet" transition of power into the hands of his deputy Emmerson Mnangagwa. Abandoning Blue Roof precipitously would have been unpleasant, even if the old father-master would surely have found someone willing to host him, as he did when, in 1991, he welcomed Mengistu Hail Mariam fleeing from Ethiopia and gave the former red negus a place to Zimbabwe security adviser, where he still resides.
