I absolutely
love President Robert Mugabe - Africa would be much better off, and
much further along if the rest of the so-called leaders took the same
stance he, Julius Nyrere, Jomo Kenyatta and other intelligent Black
leaders took when it came to putting Africa for the Africans first.
It's because of the psychosociological brain washing and continued
dependence on white approval and technology that Africa continues to
cannibalize herself.
Can we inject the rest of the "leaders" with his DNA? Better yet, can we clone President Mugabe???
I'm
sharing this article I received from my friend, CP Ohio, with all my African and African American brothers and
sisters. I truly hope President Mugabe is grooming a successor and an
administration to carry his policies and principles forward.

The Hon. President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe!!!
Zimbabwe President Mugabe tells white people to
“Go back to England”
This article by Liku Zelleke talks about the recent words
by Zimbabwe president Robert
Mugabe. The backdrop of his actions is that Zimbabwe has been deeply affected by Europeans who’ve colonized the
country and extracted the nation of it’s resources. This has
led him to have a low tolerance for the continued occupation of his homeland,
which is a controversial position to say the least.
Reported by Liku
Zelleke
Robert Gabriel Mugabe,
the president of Zimbabwe, said last week that the Whites who had been disowned of farming lands might as well
“go back to England” as there was no hope of their ever
regaining ownership over their former
properties.
Mugabe made the
speech during a ceremony held for the
installation of a chief in his rural Zvimba area. He
also said that the sanctions that have been in place against his country for
quite some time now wouldn’t have that much effect on his stand against Whites.
“The West prefers
a weak leader who, they hope, would allow the Whites
to come back,” he said in Shona, a local
dialect. “They think if they intimidate us we will be
cowed and allow the Whites to come back; that will
never happen.”
“Don’t they [the
Whites] know where their ancestors came from? The
British who are here should all go back to
England.”
“What is the problem? We now have airplanes
which can take them back quicker than the ships used by their ancestors,”
Mugabe quipped.
He then moved on to the topic of the few
hundreds of White farmers who still remained in Zimbabwe and owned land.
“There are White
farmers who are still on the land and have the protection of some cabinet
ministers and politicians as well as traditional leaders,” he said.
“I have been given a list of 35 White
farmers in Mashonaland West alone and in just a few districts that have
been audited. We say no to Whites owning
our land and they
should go.”
He then continued to clarify what Whites could
own in Zimbabwe, “They can
own companies and apartments in our towns and cities but not the soil.It is
ours and that message should ring loud and clear in Britain and the United States.”
Mugabe then went back a few years and told of the falling out he had with former
British Prime Minister Tony
Blair:
“We had an agreement with the Margaret Thatcher government and when
Tony Blair came he reneged on that agreement.
I pleaded with him to review his decision but he was a boy from the streets with
no experience so he stuck to his guns,” Mugabe
said. “I was not amused and told him to keep his England and we would keep our Zimbabwe. We will not pay for our land and we
will not ask our people to pay for it because they never paid for it in the
first place. They were selling to each other among themselves, and we will not
recognize any of that nonsense. They were living like kings andqueens on our land and we chucked them out. Now we want
all of it.”
The brits and other eurotrash have raped, robbed, pillaged and enslaved Africans for centuries
- did they really think that we should just forgive and forget and let
them continue with business as usual - that the concept of "freedom" was
just some theoretical thing, but not to be taken seriously? Thank
goodness there is a President Mugabe in Africa to show how it's really
supposed to be done. Now is the time for the rest of the African
countries and their leaders to wake up - later is too late. By now you
must know that you can't make deals with the devil. The condition your
people are in is a direct result of not making the demands for parity at
the outset, and sticking to them.
Now that you know, what are you going to do about it???
Just received the press release below from the Office of the Mayor of Philadelphia, Michael Nutter, and wanted to comment on it, sooner than later. I think it admirable that the mayor is seeking outside development opportunities for the City of Philadelphia. It shows that he is not willing to sit idly by and allow things to devolve. My only concern is this, however: There should also be a trade mission on the Mayor's part to Africa and to those African countries that are developed and developing. And it is easily cultivated via the many partnerships already in Philadelphia, as well as via the many missions a the UN. There are a significant number of African Entrepreneurs who routinely operate between the US, UK, Japan and other areas that could be instrumental in making Philadelphia's port a truly international one, and broaden and strengthen the scope of relationships between one of the leading mayors in the 5th largest city in the United States.
No aspersions on the individuals with whom Mayor Nutter is in contact with, but I would also respectfully submit the name of Molefi Asante as one with home he should be collaborating for he further expansion of Philadelphia's development.
Mr. Asante just recently returned from a three month mission to Africa, and can certainly shed some light on what the opportunities and possibilities are. Additionally, the Leon Sullivan Foundation, under the guidance of former Ambassador Andrew Young, and Ambassador Carlton Masters (which has the OIC Headquarters in Philadelphia), would likewise be excellent conduits through which the Mayor will find ample options for development and expansion of trade and industry.
Having recently attended the 60th Anniversary of the Africa American Institute, which was attended like wise by several African industrialist and "trillionaires, including basket ball great, Dikembe Mutumbo, I feel certain that there is more than a little interest, and great opportunities for major collaborations between the Mayor and these individuals and their organizations.
I wish him every luck on the Trade Mission, but wish that there will also be included the viable resources from the Continent, as well.

MAYOR NUTTER TO LEAD TRADE MISSION TO UNITED KINGDOM AND ISRAEL
MAYOR NUTTER TO LEAD TRADE MISSION TO UNITED KINGDOM AND ISRAEL
Philly mission will meet with companies looking to invest here, assist city companies with trade opportunities
Philadelphia, October 7, 2013—
Mayor Michael A. Nutter announced that he will lead a trade mission to
the United
Kingdom and Israel next month in order to attract investment from
international companies in Philadelphia and to assist Philadelphia
companies with trade opportunities in these two key marketplaces. Mayor
Nutter will be joined by a number of Philadelphia-area
companies on both legs of the mission and will take part in a range of
activities to promote Philadelphia and attract international investment.
“My
Administration is committed to attracting investment and job creation
to Philadelphia, whether from elsewhere in the United States or
from around the world, and this trade mission offers many exciting
opportunities to meet with businesses looking to invest in our region,”
said Mayor Michael A. Nutter. “I want to thank the many partners that
are supporting this effort and working each and
every day to promote Philadelphia on the global stage. It is through
these relationships that we will attract new international investment,
create trade opportunities for Philadelphia businesses, and create new
jobs for Philadelphians.”
In
the United Kingdom, Mayor Nutter and Deputy Mayor for Economic
Development Alan Greenberger will meet with more than 100 UK companies
interested in doing business in the Philadelphia region at a reception
hosted by UK Minister for Trade and Investment Lord Green. They will
participate in roundtable discussions with industry leaders in energy
efficient building and infrastructure investment
and will visit Tech City to share best practices on how cities support
the growth of startups and entrepreneurs. Mayor Nutter will also attend
the World Travel Market, one of the largest tourism and travel
expositions in the world. With the Mayor will be Jack
Ferguson, CEO of the Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau
(PHLCVB), and members of his team to meet with tour operators, trade and
consumer media, and airline executives to promote Philadelphia. Mayor
Nutter will also have a number of one-to-one meetings
with business executives on specific initiatives in Philadelphia and
will meet with a range of high-level political leaders.
“The
UK will be thrilled to welcome Mayor Nutter in November, and his visit
will highlight the City of Philadelphia's commitment to international
trade,” said Danny Lopez, British Consul-General to New York. “The UK
and Philadelphia's historical ties reach back to William Penn, and today
we enjoy strong collaboration in many sectors, including clean
technology, financial services, engineering, and life
sciences. Mayor Nutter's visit will serve as a catalyst for the next
phase of our business partnerships and shared investments.”
While
in Israel, Mayor Nutter will be hosted by the City of Tel Aviv, a
sister city of Philadelphia since 1996, and will participate in a
range of activities to highlight the importance of this relationship.
He will meet with Israeli companies looking to invest in North America,
including a range of Israeli venture capitalists looking for investments
and American cities that are suitable for
portfolio companies looking to expand into the United States.
Accompanied by a number of Philadelphia leaders, Mayor Nutter will
attend the Jewish Federations of North America General Assembly in
Jerusalem and visit key historic and cultural sites of importance
to the Jewish community. Finally, Mayor Nutter will be joined by
Drexel President John Fry and Dr. Steven Altschuler, CEO of the
Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, as they announce an exciting new
research partnership with Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
“At
no other point in recent history have so many business people in
Philadelphia and in Israel had the opportunity to come together as one
in the interest of advancing our mutual economic interests,” said Yaron
Sideman, Consul General of Israel to the Mid-Atlantic Region. “This
trade mission, led by Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter, contributes
greatly to a momentum which we all must seize
upon in order to explore business and investment opportunities and to
create lasting partnerships. Both Israel and Philadelphia are in the
forefront of world technology in complementary sectors. I am extremely
encouraged by the opportunities this visit offers
to expand business ties, create new jobs and generate new ideas that
will self-perpetuate the economic partnership between Israel and
Philadelphia for many years to come.”
Joining
Mayor Nutter on the trade mission will be a range of Philadelphia
companies from sectors including technology, clean energy, green
building, manufacturing, venture capital, and biotech that are pursuing
specific trade objectives in either the United Kingdom or Israel. They
will be provided with a tailored program ,including meetings with
business leaders and potential customers, in-country
briefings, and connections with industry experts. A full list of
businesses will be published closer to the departure date but companies
signed up to participate include Aberdeen Asset Management, the Mark
Group, Artisan Mobile, and Derbyshire Machinery and
Tool Co.
This
trade mission was made possible by the support of a number of partners
including the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, UK Trade and Investment,
the Consulate-General of Israel, Select Greater Philadelphia, the
International Visitors Council, the World Trade Center of Greater
Philadelphia, Drexel University, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia,
the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia, the Philadelphia-Israel
Chamber of Commerce, US Airways, British Airways, the United States
Commercial Service, PHLCVB, Philadelphia International Airport, The Mark
Group, Aberdeen Asset Management, London and Partners, the British
American Business Council, the Honorary British
Consul, and Greenberg Traurig. All businesses and organizations will
cover their own travel and accommodation costs. Costs for City of
Philadelphia officials will be covered by Select Greater Philadelphia.
The trade mission will arrive in London on November 2, 2013, departing for Tel Aviv on November 6, 2013, arriving back in Philadelphia November
12, 2013. A full itinerary will be published closer to the departure date.
As stated earlier, Mayor Nutter is definitely on the right track pursuing outside options for the expansion of Philadelphia; however, it would also be a positive sign to include a trip to Africa in that mission, or set up a subsequent one with the resident and international experts he has already residing in his city, ready, willing and able to provide him with the information and resource to further expand opportunities and options.
