WHY NOT INCLUDE TYRANNY TO GLOBAL TERRORISM INDEX.
When a country, or institution becomes famous for conquering it's own people, it's leaders are tyrants and the tyranny cabals are more worse, mein than terrorists. While terrorists kills in the open, you can hardly see the tyranny cabals coming until they stink their victims into shallow graves... they (Tyranny cabals) have power, finance, government mechanisms and the press which is gripped to their waist and these others the mere terrorists don't easily be find. So in my humble opinion, tyrants are the worst"~Prince Evans Onyekachi.
THE FACTS:
When you look at Zimbabwe today in this 21st century, you will sure support the above description as fact.
What are they celebrating? Isn't it an end to 37years of tyranny which the Zimbabwe people never saw it coming until it stings on them for a whopping 37years?
Sadly, tyrants are not ordinary people, they're hardened smoking elements in government who uses the instrument of power to terrorize their people. Yet, it is difficult for world leaders to categorize such people as well as their agents and accomplices as terrorists and so in fact treats the root cause of terrorism which in so many cases span from bad governance.
Tyranny had killed more number of people and crippled so many destinies and this is obviously the truth. Osama Bin laden, Boko Haram etcetera of their kinds could not have killed and maimed more number of people than tyrants seating over an economy of a nation with poor economic principles with suppression of dissent and oppositions, impoverishing the people and under-developing the nation for decades.
MORE INSTANCE
Following the recent fall of Mr. Robert Mugabe who for a long time has been regarded as the longest serving President in Africa and the World at large for decades until his fall in November 2017, his management of Zimbabwe has so impoverished country under his rulership.
Furtherance to the above let us consider from other sources two things more
#1. The first Africa born clergyman of the Church of England who protested against President Robert Mugabe rule and
#2 one of President Robert Mugabe's ministers who is now held for corruption.
BISHOP OF YORK
#1. Ten years after UK archbishop puts collar back on after Mugabe’s fall
According to vanguardngr.com Nov 26, 2017 2:04 PM
The Archbishop of York, John Sentamu, put on his white cleric’s collar on Sunday for the first time since cutting it up ten years ago in a highly symbolic protest at Robert Mugabe’s rule.
The Uganda-born cleric, the second most senior clergyman in the Church of England, made the dramatic gesture on live television in 2007, and stated that he would not wear it again until the Zimbabwe president was gone.
After Mugabe left office this week, Sentamu appeared on the same BBC programme where he was handed the pieces of his collar, only to pull a new one out of his pocket and put it on.
“I think the lesson for Zimbabwe is the same. They just can’t try and stitch it up. Something more radical, something new has to happen in terms of the rule of law, allowing people to get jobs,” he told the Andrew Marr show.
He added: “I promised when Mugabe goes I (would) put my collar on, so I have no choice but to put it back on. And Mugabe has gone but the new president has to remember something more new than simply stitching up a thing will work.”
Sentamu said Zimbabwe needed a kind of truth and reconciliation commission like that seen in South Africa — and said Mugabe should ask for forgiveness.
“Mugabe at some point needs to say, ‘people of Zimbabwe, 37 years (ago) I took on a country that was fantastic, I nearly took it to ruin. Zimbabweans forgive me’,” he said.
Many Zimbabweans have celebrated Mugabe’s departure but fear new President Emmerson Mnangagwa — until recently one of Mugabe’s closest allies — could also lead an authoritarian regime.

Sentamu said: “It is quite possible that Emmerson Mnangagwa could actually be a very, very good president. But he can’t simply bury the past. It won’t go away.”
The 68-year-old became the Church of England’s first black archbishop when he was enthroned in November 2005.
On the BBC show ten years ago, he held up his collar, saying it was what he wore to identify himself as a clergyman.
“You know what Mugabe has done? He’s taken people’s identity, and literally, if you don’t mind, cut it to pieces, and in the end there’s nothing,” he said, snipping it into bits with scissors."
#2. ZIMBABWE MINISTER IGNATIUS CHOMBO
"Zimbabwe’s minister found with $10m docked for corruption.
Former Zimbabwe finance minister Ignatius Chombo, who was arrested by the military two weeks ago, along with $10m cash, appeared in court on Saturday to face corruption charges.
Ignatius Chombo
It was Chombo’s first public appearance since his arrest and Robert Mugabe’s fall.
He was reportedly found in possession of $10m cash.
He had no visible injuries and appeared calm, chatting with the police guarding him when the court took a break. He was dressed in dark blue suit.
Chombo’s lawyer, Lovemore Madhuku, had said his client was admitted to hospital on Friday with injuries sustained from beatings he received in military custody.
The police said they had no information on Chombo when asked to comment.
Madhuku has said the corruption and abuse-of-power charges against Chombo, who was expelled from the ruling ZANU-PF party on Sunday, related to his time as local government minister more than a decade ago.
Emmerson Mnangagwa, 75, the former vice president sacked by Mugabe earlier this month, was sworn in as president on Friday. On Thursday, Mnangagwa urged the country’s citizens not to undertake any form of “vengeful retribution”.
Some of Mnangagwa’s supporters have been calling for unspecified action against the so-called G40 group that backed Mugabe and his wife. Chombo was allied to the G40 group.
