Diplomatic bungling

IT APPEARS all is not well at Zimbabwe’s High Commission in London. Reports say the government may be forced to retire the country’s High Commissioner there, Stephen Chiketa, because of the endless conflicts he is having with the staff. The only thing that seems to have made him last this long, sources say, is his connections with senior party officials who also happen to be high ranking government ministers apparently with a great influence on President Mugabe. 

Among the ridiculous accusations being levelled against the High Commissioner is the charge that he demands to see all letters addressed to staff including chauffeurs, before they are handed over to them.
