President Robert Mugabe's last star rally ahead of watershed elections this week failed to live up to its billing as the veteran leader failed to fill Harare's 60,000 -seater National Sports Stadium on Sunday.
Several sitting bays at the giant stadium were unoccupied and scores of supporters could also be seen walking towards the exit points barely 15 minutes into the leader's long speech.
Proceedings also started rather ominously for Mugabe as a mini football match organised to demonstrate the concept of bhora mugedhi/bhola eghedini ended up sending the wrong signals with the keeper, dressed in red (MDC-T colour), who was supposed to have let the ball in ending up making a save.
