Robert Mugabe proposes "castration" for monsters who rape children

President Robert Mugabe has come up with a solution to the growing rate of rape and child abuse cases. He said that castration of rapists and child abusers is the best way to stem the vice. The Zimbabwean president reportedly made this known while speaking during his 92nd birthday celebrations at the Great Zimbabwe Monuments on Saturday, February 26.

Mugabe said he was confused by people who abuse minors.

"What sex impulse is it which gets one to abuse a little child? I wonder what enough punishment for such people is," he said. "Can you suggest how such brutal monsters amongst us that rape babies should be punished … burdizzo (castration device) We should make them oxen, some people should be made oxen."

However, Mugabe noted that the government is going to attract the wrath of human rights defenders if it were to go ahead with such a plan.

"Again, human rights people will say it (castration) is too severe. Sharia Law says if you use your hand to steal, that hand must be cut off. Now you use what to abuse the child? I think that which you use should be cut off. They will go and get an artificial one (I)think," he said, amid laughter and applause from the thousands of villagers who braved the light showers that characterised the event.

The proposal seemed to get the backing of Vice-President Phelekezela Mphoko and Women’s Affairs minister Nyasha Chikwinya, Zimbabwe Southern Eye reports.

14 year old abducted Ese Oruru allegedly 5 months pregnant

Ese Rita Oruru, the 14 year old girl from Bayelsa state who was abducted by Yinusa Dahiru, alias Yellow may be about 5 months pregnant, according to Vanguard.

The white Hijab she wore when she arrived on Tuesday, was used to disguise the alleged pregnancy. Her pregnant condition was what made the IGP, Solomon Arase to give instructions to fly her to by air after she was rescued, rather than by road.

This was after she had been handed over to the Gender and Child Protection Unit where a team from the Medical Department of the Force carried out a comprehensive medical examination of her at the Police Medical Facility in Area 1, Garki and confirmed her pregnancy.

Meanwhile, the IGP has directed the Bayelsa State Police Command to take over investigation in the child violence offense saga because the offense was committed in Bayelsa which is the place of residence of the abductor, Yunusa Dahiru.

Consequently, Vanguard was told that Yunusa will be moved to Yenegoa to face interrogation and prosecution for kidnapping and child abuse as well as violence against a girl-child.

YOUR EXCELLENCY, WHAT IS THE COST OF YOUR LATEST SWAG?

Dear Sir,

I write you this letter as a concerned indigene of our beloved Rivers State. I did not set out to write because like other eletronic vuvuzelas, I desire to scout for cheap popularity. Trust me, my intentions are quite noble. I may be unable to unlace your sandals, but I am sure that I can draw your attention to those matters which merits your commendation and condemnation, so that your appetite for princely robes, real estates, automiles and bank-breaking acholic beverages can be put in check.

Please sir, don't be mad at me for revealing the golden nature of your taste. It is not in doubt that you are a man with a grand appetite for grandeur. that is not a secret at all. From your acquisition of choiced properties during your reign as Chief of staff to your former boss now turned enemy, to your accession to the laudable comforts of porsh automobiles, you have displayed an affection for luxury worthy of emulation by aspiring politicians who see you as a role model.

But my worry sir, is that you have decided not to put your taste for these automobiles in check. I recently heard that you acquired two bullet proof mobile offices reportedly worth three Hundred million naira (N300, 000, 000. 00).

If my records serve me right, you are the first governor to have purchased these luxury mobile offices in Nigeria. I know that by this purchase, you have shot Rivers State into the exclusive class of States in the world with a world class throttling office good enough to feed several families and for which great operational expenses would be incured. Bravo sir! Your swagger and 'prudence' are worthy of emulation.

What defies wonder is that you chose to buy two (2) of these sexy automobiles at a period of auterity and great economic strain when your government has for the same reason, discontinued the Rivers State Oversea Scholarship for want of funds. That you chose to purchase these offices at a period when salaries are yet to be paid and when the dollar is sky-high for want of local investment is a testimonial of your 'frugality and great economic marks-manship. You are indeed a modern wonder!

Please sir, permit me to ask you just one or two questions. What is the cost of this your recent swag? I hope the amount will not be eshrouded in mystery? I hope it will not suffer the Same fate as the 2016 Appropriation Bill which has remained a privately classified document?

Let me congratulate you once again for inflicting your kingly taste on the good people of Rivers State. You have proven yourself a good son worthy of emulation and have broken every record of economic frugality in an era of austerity.

Please accept my warmest regards!

Yours Sincerely,

Aholu Charles C.

PDP Faction Breaks Out, Sets Up New Party

A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party on Tuesday set up a new political party in Abuja. The party, which has yet to be registered, is known as the Peoples Mega Party.

The faction is led by Perry Opara, an aide to Goodluck Jonathan’s Political Adviser, Ahmed Gulak.

Recalled that only recently, Gukak declared himself as the national chairman of the PDP.
But many members of the party rejected his leadership. The new party is believed to have been formed by persons working for aggrieved members of the PDP.

At the NC/national retreat held by the promoters of the new party, its Acting National Chairman, Opara told the delegates that the party’s mission was to provide a focused and patriotic body.

He said the crisis over the resignation of the former National Chairman of the PDP, Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu also led to the setting up of the new party.

Opara flayed the national leadership of the party for its refusal to allow someone from the North-East replace Mu’azu after the former governor of Bauchi State resigned after the 2015 general elections.

He said, “We tried to examine why the party lost, how to rebrand it and all that but unfortunately, all efforts were rebuffed. We went through the country to see who would represent us. We went to Alex Ekwueme and Sen. Ken Nnamani to lead us.

“At a stage, Ekwueme led a delegation to the national headquarters of the party to allow the North-East have a new chairman.

“For four hours, we couldn’t get any word from the NWC as words of commitment. We all left in anger and in dejection... That is impunity."
