Zimbabwe's 91-year-old President Robert Mugabe read the wrong speech at
the opening of a new session of parliament on Tuesday, repeating an
address he gave to the legislature last month.
The veteran leader read the 25-minute-long speech
through to the end, apparently unaware that he was delivering the same
text he presented during his state of the nation address last month."There has been a mix-up of speeches resulting in a situation where... the president delivered the wrong speech," said presidential spokesman George Charamba."The mix-up happened in his secretarial office," Charamba was quoted as saying in the state-owned Herald newspaper's online edition. "The error is sincerely regretted and corrective measures are being considered."
