NOTICE: The Zimbabwe Mail updates are available all christmas and New Year Holidays
Dear Readers - Please note that we will be updating this website as and when we get the news. We're not in the comfort of celebrating christmas and new year when Zimbabwean people are suffering at the hands of an ageing 84 year old brutal dictator who abducts women and 2 year olds, accusing them of recruiting bandits. We're not going to wish anyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year when those things are obviously not available to the majority of Zimbabwean people. The terrorist regime in Zimbabwe is the one besieging our nation, and it must be told so.
