Africa’s Crocodile Tears for Zimbabwe
June 26th, 2008 | EthioPolitics.com |Some African Leaders Call For Free Elections in Zimbabwe, But Not In Their Countries. Leaders Criticize President Mugabe But Face Similar Allegations of Voter Fraud and Intimidation at Home.
In the AU, several powerhouse countries have leaders who critics say benefited from rigged elections. Nigeria, Ethiopia, Egypt and Uganda are all countries where electoral fraud including intimidation of opposition support, ballot stuffing, or unilaterally changing the country’s constitution to extend or end term limits, have all allegedly been used to keep a leader in power.

I THINK WE DO HAVE ALSO A PROBLEM WITH THE AFRICAN’S OPPOSITION PARTY. THEY ARE ALWAYS DEPENDING TO WESTERN COUNTRIES OR KEEPING PROMISE
TO AMERICA FOR THE SAKE OF INTEREST OF THE WHITE HOUSE. WE NEED A STRONG OPPOSITION FREE FROM HATRED, NEUTRAL AND ALWAYS STANDING FOR THE COMMON
HOMELAND INTEREST.
