Outrage in Zimbabwe After Contestant loses Big Brother Final


I'm guessing the folks in Zimbabwe didnt take losing too easily,The office of Robert Mugabe has reportedly demanded recordings of Africa’s Big Brother after a Zimbabwean contestant was beaten by a Nigerian in the final.Mr Mugabe’s nephew and another political ally have launched a drive to raise £190,000 in compensation for Munya Chidzonga, 24, from Harare, after criticising the voting process as not “free and fair”.
The MNET Africa guys,(continent-wide satellite television company which screens the show) said that Mr Mugabe’s office has also asked for recordings of the show’s Sunday final.okay this dude Diamond boy/Mr Chidzonga,who is an actor, first appeared on African Big Brother in 2008 was invited back to take part in this year’s All Stars which reunites the viewers’ 14 favourites characters. The Zimbabwean often walked around in the Big Brother house, in Johannesburg, South Africa, draped in his national flag and expressed a wish to meet Robert Mugabe...Oh gosh..

Both he and Nigerian Uti Nwachukwu had won the votes of seven African countries each but Uti was the lukcy dude who grabbed the £127,000 prize after gaining the Rest of Africa vote.
I'm hearing Zimbabweans are saying voting wasnt free and fair,there are even claims that voting had been manipulated to please the larger Nigerian audience.
Mugabe's Nephew HotShot Tycoon Phillip Chiyangwa said Chidzonga had been “cheated” out of the title by bogus voting practices.“We have opened a bank account and created a board of trustees for Munya because we believe he was cheated and has been traumatised by the outcome,” he said.
“Let’s give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and release the shock from him.Where there is no hope, we must invent hope.”
He said his property company, Pinnacle Holdings, could give Mr Chidzonga “a piece of property or even a house to compensate for the traumatic experience”
Well its either Mnet's got some explaining to do!...or are these guys just overreacting.
ps: totally off topic, did I mention that this guy gotta mean Phantom up in his estate in Zimbabwe....Zimbabwe's First Rolls Royce...He baaaaad
