The Central Bank of Zimbabwe stated on Monday that it would soon begin issuing gold currency in an effort to reduce inflation, which hit 191 percent in June.

Two decades after former president Mugabe has destroyed Zimbabwe’s economy by encouraging black farmers to violently force white commercial farmers off their land, his successor is now throwing in the towel. The land grabs, which began in 2000, were supported by Mugabe’s government “because it needed to correct colonial imbalances”. Nearly 4,500 white-owned properties and others protected... 

Zimbabwe which was widely hailed by the controlled media to have “turned a corner” and be “on the road to recovery” following the forced resignation of Robert Mugabe a year ago, is now in even worse condition than ever, and has regular 15-hour power cuts, runaway inflation, and endless currency crises and fuel shortages.

The mainstream media is now going crazy reporting the news of a glorious return of a white farmer to Zimbabwe who had his farm land seized by the former government of the black racist Robert Mugabe.

The Zimbabwean...
