Mugabe palace hints at plans to stay - Zimbabwe
Robert Mugabe, the president of Zimbabwe, is building a lavish palace costing R43-million (£3,75-million, $5,8-million) on the outskirts of the capital, Harare.

Furnishings and security are expected to send the cost to more than R69-million (£6-million, $9,4-million) at a time when nearly half of Zimbabwe's population is dependent on international food aid.

Its sprawling accommodation includes 25 bedrooms with bathrooms and spas. It is three times the size of the president's official residence, State House, and his adjacent offices.

I think this is breaking news because more than likely our tax dollars have bought his this house either by direct aid or CIA/NSA aid but I'll put it here to be safe.
