- 5 years ago
The former president of Zimbabwe Robert Mugabe has died in a hospital in Singapore.
He was 95 years old. He was being treated in Singapore since April.
Nearly four decades after the country's independence from Britain in 1980, he was regarded by many as a tyrant, willing to unleash death squads, rig elections and trash the economy in the relentless pursuit of power.
He was ousted from power in a military coup in November 2017.
