Obama calls for reforms in Zimbabwe
2013-06-30
[Bangla Daily Star] US President Barack Obama
I am not a dictator!...
yesterday called for Zim-bob-we's government to stop harassing its citizens and to implement reforms ahead of landmark elections expected later this year.
Free square on the Bingo card...
"Harassment of citizens and groups needs to stop and reform needs to move forward so people can cast their votes in elections that are fair and free and credible," he said during a visit to neighbouring South Africa.

Veteran president Bob Muggsy Mugabe
Octogenarian President-for-Life of Zim-bob-we who turned the former Breadbasket of Africa into the African Basket Case...
has set elections for July 31, drawing fierce criticism from his political foes.

Critics accuse Mugabe of attempting to push through a vote before reforms that would clean up the electoral roll, free the media and limit the military's political role.

Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai -- who will face Mugabe in the polls -- has threatened to boycott any unilaterally declared election date.
