Mugabe in Singapore for eye operation ahead of 90th birthday─── 13:16 Tue, 18 Feb 2014
Singapore - Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe is in Singapore for an eye operation ahead of his 90th birthday on Friday.
Government spokesperson, George Charamba, says Mugabe will be back in the country for birthday celebrations on Saturday.
Charamba dismissed speculation that Mugabe is struggling with his health. A June 2008 US diplomatic cable released by WikiLeaks said Mugabe has prostate cancer that has spread to other organs.
In an interview ahead of his 89th birthday last year Mugabe said he felt he had a “divine task” to lead. - Timeslive
