Who is the President of Zimbabwe?

Robert Gabriel Mugabe is the President of Mugabe.

Born on 1924 February 21, Mugabe became a leader of Zimbabwe as part of the movement against minority white rule. He joined the National Democratic Party in 1960, which was reformed as the Zimbabwe African People's Union (ZAPU). He split off to join the Zimbabwe African National Union (ZANU) in 1963. Imprisoned in 1964, he served 10 years before being released in 1974 along with leader Joshua Nkomo.

Mugabe then went to fight in neigbouring Mozambique for Black Africans emerging as a hero at the end of the war in 1979. In the 1980 Zimbabwe General election, he became Prime Minister of Zimbabwe by calling for reconciliation between whites and blacks. A rift developed between Mugabe and Nkomo, and bitter fighting was felt throughout the country from 1982 to 1987. On 1987 December 31 Robert Mugabe made himself President of Zimbabwe, abolished the Prime Minister position, made Nkomo Vice-president, and merged their parties, creating a one-party state.

Mugabe has continued to act as dictator president for the last 23 years. In 2008, parliamentary and presidential elections were held. Mugabe ended up losing the first round to Morgan Tsavangiri, but through military intimidation, the withdrawl of Tsavangiri due to lack of faith in the process, and blatant electoral fraud, Mugabe was awarded a landslide victory. In 2013, Mugabe was re-elected over Tsavangiri again 61.09% to 33.94% again with many charges of corruption in the election process.

If I decide to ship my 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac to Zimbabwe Africa are repair facilities with access to Ford replacement parts available in Harare?

Hello: I am thinking of moving to Zimbabwe, Africa in 2010 & shipping my 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac with me. It will have about 100,000 miles at that time & have been covered by Ford's 100,000 mile complete warranty/repair coverage guarantee for the entire time. My question: Will I be able to obtain genuine Ford replacement parts & qualified repair work in Harare, the Capital city of Zimbabwe where I will be living? South Africa is adjacent to Zimbabwe with a common border: would I need to order parts through them instead? Does Ford Motor Corp. have linked business associations with Ford car dealerships in Zimbabwe either directly or through England which used to be the ruling colonial power in Zimbabwe prior to 1980? Does Ford Motor Corp have any parterships with any particular shipping line or in any way recommend a particular shipping line for such a projected voyage? Thank you for your help & advice.
