Canberra’s Ambassador from Zimbabwe has had an exciting tenure, but now Yahoo Seven brings word she’s defecting:
Zimbabwe’s ambassador to Australia is asking Canberra for asylum, lashing out at her country’s “illegitimate” government and voicing fears for her safety if she returns home at the end of her posting next week, reports said Saturday.
Jacqueline Zwambila condemned President Robert Mugabe’s government, and said she has moved out of her official residence but has no intention of using her business class ticket to return home, the Canberra Times reported.
