Had Zimbabweans been able to choose the moment to move against their president and his spoiled family, it would have been the day two weeks ago when a video emerged of his son deliberately pouring expensive champagne over a $60,000 wristwatch in a show of arrogance and entitlement.
While his countrymen were struggling to draw cash from banks and supermarket shelves were empty of food, Chatunga Mugabe’s sheer gall left many feeling murderous.
In the darkened light of a nightclub, as his brother Robert Jnr groped a woman in the background, President Mugabe’s 21-year-old son and a friend could be seen holding their wrists together before pouring a bottle of Armand de Brignac Gold, which costs about £250, over their watches.
We think Robert Mugabe’s son was trying to impress a few people on his Instagram story this week. However, Bellarmine’s vacant attempts to brag about his wealth fell incredibly short.
In the video, Bellarmine Mugabe is filmed partying in his nightclub with his brother. They’ve got a few girls with them (who must have left their moral compasses at home), and can be seen having a dance and a drink whilst music booms out.
Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree
Then, about 15 seconds in, Bellarmine does something that is, quite frankly, the behaviour of an oddball. He films himself pouring a bottle of champagne over his ‘expensive watch’, in an apparent show of opulence and wealth to the Instagram followers who keep giving him attention, for some reason.
Now, the watch itself has become a contentious item. He recently uploaded a picture of it to social media, with the “$60 000 on the wrist when your daddy run the whole country ya know!!!”
Mugabe’s son acts the twat
The sad truth is Bellarmine, there’s nothing impressive about wealth. Not if it hasn’t been earned. You haven’t worked a day in your life, and therefore, know nothing about real value.
Secondly, what type of self-respecting adult male pours their booze away? That’s unforgivable. Forget the fact that the Armand di Brignac gold brand of bubbly sells for hundreds of US Dollars. If that was a R30 bottle of Castle, it would still be just as embarrassing for you.
How the Mugabe’s have raised their children
As Grace Mugabe lines up her bid for the presidency, it seems like her idiot sons are more than happy
to literally piss away taxpayer money.
If the Mugabe regime can be toppled, not only would it be satisfying to see the dictators fall and democracy return to Zimbabwe. But it would be extremely gratifying to see the likes of Bellarmine brought back down to earth with a thud.
