President Mugabe has taken a swipe at United States President Barack
Obama for trying to “arm twist” African countries into submission by
reportedly tying aid to African countries to the decriminalisation of
homosexuality. Mugabe criticised US president Barack Obama’s conditional aid and
said western countries have targeted him for his stance on
homosexuality. Addressing thousands of party supporters at a campaign
rally in Mutare, President Mugabe reminded Obama that he was not born of
out of homosexuality. “Then we have this American president, Obama, born of an African
father, who is saying we will not give you aid if you don’t embrace
homosexuality,” President Mugabe said. “We ask, was he born out of homosexuality? We need continuity in our
race, and that comes from the woman, and no to homosexuality.” President Mugabe, however is been criticized too for pointing a
finger at others when prominent officials in his party, Zanu Pf are
allegedly gay.
