– In his hey days or until he was ousted, president Robert Mugabe enjoyed the very best in life
– From expensive watches to glasses and as we have come to learn, a sprawling Roman-esque palace where he is currently being held
– The palace features a majestic pool, a lush lawn and a bedroom with a king size bed that looks like it was borrowed from a fairytale
– His dining room shimmers with taste; Victorian furniture, exquisite cutlery and the air of a room swathed in money, opulence and the excesses of a man who has been president since 1980
Hey…do you want to live as if you are already in the biblical promised land where milk and honey are in plenty and eternal supply and no disease nor poverty designed to torment you can be mentioned?
Well, just become an African Head of State.
The fall of Zimbabwe strongman Robert Mugabe has offered a rare glimpse of the life the liberation hero led and still enjoys even in his detention.
Of course, TUKO.co.ke has learnt that the military has detained him at the comfort of his palatial 25-bedroom palatial home siting on a 44-acre piece of land in the leafy suburbs of Borrowdale, Harare.
Let the pictures do the talking…

Wonder why Grace Mugabe would convince the strongman to fire his allies? Here is where the plots were schemed. Photo: Ghafla

Who wouldn’t hire the man who designed this beautiful piece of architecture? If they had money of course. Photo: Ghafla

Got to be any slay queen’s dream to take a shower here. Well, Grace Mugabe used this bathroom for years. Photo: Ghafla
