He seemed such a nice cheerful little old man, keen on fair elections and democracy, always dancing and wearing bright colours, surrounded by nice women carrying car tyres and petrol for some reason (perhaps they don't have Green Flag out there!).
His life seemed to prove the adage about power corrupting people and absolute power corrupting absolutely. Fantastic achievements in his early life completely overshadowed since he destroyed Nkomo and ZAPU and effectively became dictator.
anti apartheid, pro tribalism .. made himself wealthy whilst bankrupting his country .. his death is an irrelevancy, his legacy is one of chaos and bankruptcy

Sad fact of the matter is that he'll either decompose in the ground or be burned, with no suffering, like the rest of us.
No burning in hell, no recompense for the horror that he inflicted on innocent people, nothing. Just dead.
The worlds a better place today.
