Mugabe Announces: “There is no Cholera”

President Robert Mugabe has said Zimbabwe has contained cholera – as the UN and a UK charity warned the deadly outbreak was getting worse.

Save the Children said: “If anything is certain in the chaos of Zimbabwe today it is that the cholera outbreak is not under control.”

Mr Mugabe also said Western powers were plotting to use cholera as an excuse to invade and overthrow him. “Now that there is no cholera there is no cause for war,” he said.
