EXHUMATIONS................Again?

Rhodes grave
It is clear that this is a year of exhumations, especially in Zimbabwe. Firstly it was Mujuru now it is Rhodes.For Mujuru it is understandable because the family wanted to verify if the buried body was really Mujuru's but for Rhodes, what is the purpose? Rhodes' grave is a tourist resort which helps generate income to the country, but for ZANLA war vets, the grave or remains are the ones causing poor rains in the region. Is this geographically or culturally proven or it is just a way of "eradicating" the whites, both alive and dead? THe indegenisation programme did its job to the peak, why the exhuming long dead bodies. The ZANLA is also stating that Rhodes' remains belittled Zimbabwe's independence and disturbed their rituals which they usually carry out at Milindidzimu Hills. As the ritual, the ZANLA war vets are believed to bath naked at Hove River while an old woman is ululating and clapping. Marshal Mpofu, the spokesperson of ZIPRA Veteran Trust described the move as disgusting. "We are saddened by this unusual act by ZANLA war vets", he said. So the bottom line is, who hates the whites most here in our multi-race country...?
