Robert Mugabe - Hero or Villain? | Inside Story

Former Zimbabwean president dies at the age of 95

Robert Mugabe was a divisive figure right up until he died on Friday in a Singapore hospital.
Some saw Zimbabwe's first leader after independence from Britain as a liberator.
His critics say he was a dictator and tyrant who left the country - once known as Africa's fruit basket - in economic ruin.
