President Mugabe orders arrest of Zimbabwean Olympic team for winning no medal

President Robert Mugabe has reportedly ordered the arrest of the whole team that represented Zimbabwe in the just concluded Olympics in Rio. The 92-year-old president gave the order to the Commissioner General of Zimbabwe Police Republic, Augustine Chihuri. He instructed him to arrest and detain them immediately they arrived at the Harare International Airport on Tuesday, August 23.
Zimbabwe presented a team of 31 athletes, but unfortunately, none of them won a medal. The closet any of them got to winning was the 8th position.

Mr. Mugabe who is incensed with the team’s performance told the Police Chief to arrest all the team members and detain them. He said:

“We have wasted the country’s money on these rats we call athletes. If you are not ready to sacrifice and win even copper or brass medals (referring the 4th and 5th positions) as our neighbors Botswana did, then why do you go to waste our money”
This situation is like an impotent man who is married to five women, what is the essence? I will make sure we share the cost across board for all of them to pay back to government chest even if it takes 10 years to recoup, now it turns out to be a soft loan we have given them to go and visit Brazil as tourist, they are useless.”
