A massive official cover-up could be underway after police investigations into the ballooning illegal trade in rhino horns netted two Zanu PF ministers.

i hope one day to read an article that a Rhino has sorted the poachers out
Yet again the ZanuPF idiots who do these things get away scot free. It happened with the willowgate scandal and zisco steel and many others. These enemies of the state have to be brought to book and be publicly hanged to show tht any one raping the country of it's resources will not go unpunished. Thieves are not welcome in the new Zimbabwe. Any one with a brain would know that Rhino Horn is matted hair like finger nails. Cut it and it will grow back. So tranquilise the rhino cut the horn , sell that horn to the arabs, rhino wakes up grows new horn, then same thing happens next year. Rhino's live, poachers are no longer needed and the arabs are happy and brings more foraign currency into the country and everyone is a winner. It's not bloody rocket science to work that one out.
No, you don't get it, the rhinos are just the dry run to see just how much ZANU-PF can bleed Zimbabwe before someone puts a stop to it!
A few rhinos, while reprehensible, are nothing compared to the deal ZANU-PF will work out with the Chinese for Zimbabwe's platinum!
Platinum is far more precious per ounce than rhino horn!
"Total Empowerment!"
It was a good mission of "Group of Eight" or G8 which are known to be the world's richest country to help boost the agricultural production of the world's poorest countries. Not only the agricultural production but also the meat production. Meat production may also include Venison. Venison, or game meat, is high protein, but very low in fat. Venison technically means any meat gained from hunting, but many mean deer meat. It's worth a cash loan or two, as it is delicious. A few cash loans can also net a decent hunting set up. Venison is great for braising – or any method of preparation, although getting a whole side of it up icy stairs, or carrying anything up icy stairs, is a real chore. Getting some venison through a butcher or hunting your own, is worth talking with money lender to get started. Follow here to read more: http://personalmoneystore.com/moneyblog/2009/07/11/cash-loans/
Such allegations must be thoroughly investigated and culprits brought to book, there should be no sacred cows, whether ZPF or MDC and these political parties must stop the nonsense that if any one of them is caught then they plead political persecution. Aba ngaasungwe and punished accordingly as a clear message that the law is blind.
Akapfunde - you agree, it looks as if there has been a cover up here, and if there has been, then those responsible should be jailed?
Isabela, as healthy as venison is, I don't think the idea of granting hunting licenses to kill these animals is such a good idea at the present time as Zimbabwe is currently governed by an indifferent and uncaring Mugabe that such a move would see animals extinct for corruption.
for all those that say Zimbabwe isnt corrupt.. have a read of this article... ZANU PF politicians caught red handed by the looks of it. Disgraceful.
