Zimbabweans in capital bemoan the lingering legacy of former leader’s economic and political misrule.
There was little regret expressed on the streets of Harare at the news of the death of the former Zimbabwean president Robert Mugabe.
A hero of Africa’s independence struggle, but whose nearly four-decade rule descended into tyranny, corruption and incompetence, Mugabe died in Singapore on Thursday night.
Norman Makoto, 33, a school teacher from the poor outlying neighbourhood of Epworth, said he felt little sympathy for Mugabe, who was ousted in a military takeover in 2017.
