A party to celebrate president Mugabe turning 90 years of age last month was held on Friday in Harare with more than 1000 people thought to have attended.
90 beasts were slaughtered cost more that $ 1 million. That was followed a few weeks later by Mugabe's daughter Bonna's wedding which reportedly cost $ 5 million. On the first occasion few journalists from the independent media were admitted while none were allowed into the second event which was held at Mugabe's house in Borrowdale on Friday a number of journalist told SW Radio Africa that they did not bother themselves this time around. It came as a shock that the government is capable of such extravagant at a time when it is struggling to pay civil servants.
