Mugabe’s son causes security nightmares

Harare – Robert Mugabe’s son, Robert jnr, is said to be causing security nightmares for his personal guards preferring a normal life. Eye witness at the posh St John’s College in Borrowdale where he attends school, said last Friday Robert Jr had caused mayhem at the school when he drove to the nearby Chisipite shopping centre to buy lunch with his white friend in a bid to get a taste of public life.

“While at the shopping centre the two entered into Born Marche shop where they bought some ice cream, a life Robert is rarely exposed to,” said a source. “It  is at  this  time that the state security, which takes him home for lunch, arrived and discovered that he was nowhere to be found.” People who reside near the college said there were noises of sirens coming from all directions during that time.

“We thought maybe the president had come for a meeting with the school when we heard noises of his motorcade. Everyone’s attention was drawn to that unusual noise. We quickly rushed to the school and discovered that the state security was asking children about the whereabouts of Robert (jnr) who at that time arrived in a friend’s posh car,” said eye witnesses.

“Robert is always telling us that he is tired of being closely monitored by the security. He told us that he misses a great deal because of confinement and that is why he decided to jump into his friend’s car to go to Chisipite,” said students at the school.

The students said he deliberately left earlier for lunch to avoid his security personnel. A teacher at the school, who requested not to be named, said the President’s son was making their work difficult because of security agents.

“We have heard that he has on several times been denied getting out with  friends by our security and we are now afraid that he might cause us problems with the state security if he continues avoiding them,”said the teacher. Robert Jnr, who is said to be doing his upper six at the elite College is normally drove home for lunch by state security every day. Radio VOP
