The presence of Zimbabwe President, Robert Mugabe at Ghana’s diamond jubilee celebration in Accra, appears to have brought a lot of excitement to Ghanaians. 

The 93-year-old leader is undoubtedly one of the most popular African leaders in Ghana. 

He gained much popularity in the West African country over some striking comments he made especially with regards to his country’s stance on homosexuality. 

Ghanaians have taken to social media to share various comments and observations from the former AU leader’s presence at the anniversary celebration. Mr. Mugabe is connected to Ghana in many ways as he once taught as a teacher in Ghana, and got a Ghanaian wife.

After the initial news, reports  bubbled   up  that Microsoft is in talks to buy the Chinese social network, which has a  massive footprint  in the U.S. and beyond.
