Mugabe off to Dubai either for more botox or due to problems with his prostrate

SHOOT: Interesting to hear that his heir, is minister of Defence. I'm sure everyone will join me in wishing Mugabe a speedy return and recovery.

clipped from nehandaradio.com ZANU PF sources are insisting that Mugabe is not in any danger at this point and that this is just a routine check-up, but his absence at the burial of National Hero Richard Hove points to something amiss. Mugabe did not look unwell when he was in Namibia on Tuesday, the last time he was seen in public. His heir-apparent and Defence Minister, Emmerson Mnangagwa, simply says the president “has travelled” without giving further details. Dubai is also where Mugabe normally has his Botox injections and it is likely that when he does come back, you will seen him looking chubbier around the face than he has been the last few weeks. The Zimbabwe dictator has been having these injections since 2002. The injections have a noticeable effect on Mugabe, who looks gaunt and drawn when their effects have worn off and quite healthy and chubby about the face soon after they are administered. The last time he got them was just before the inauguration of Jacob Zuma in May this year, I have learnt.
