Mad Bob again !!! Cholera threat over - Mugabe 11/12/2008 12:07 - (SA) Harare - Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe said on Thursday that "there is no cholera" in his country, saying doctors have tamed an outbreak, despite UN reports of a growing death toll. "I am happy to say our doctors have been assisted by others and WHO (the World Health Organisation)... so now that there is no cholera," he said in a nationally televised speech. He also denounced calls by Prime Minister Gordon Brown of former colonial power Britain and US President George W Bush for him to step down. "Because of cholera, Mr Brown wants a military intervention," he said. "Bush wants military intervention because of cholera." "There is no cause for war any more," Mugabe said. "The cholera cause doesn't exist any more." - AFP |
