African first ladies who were neck-deep in their husband’s affairs and got into trouble

Grace Mugabe…Zimbabwe Latest News

Grace Mugabe

During the rule of former President of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe, his wife and first lady Grace Mugabe consistently made the Zimbabwean headlines for less than stellar reasons.

Grace’s public squabbles with top governmental officials and her daughter-in-law is just the icing on the cake.

Her love of extravagance and privilege hasn’t won her many fans among her husband’s constituency.

Among Grace’s offences has been single-handedly causing the then Vice-President to lose his position – then proclaiming to want the seat for herself.

Grace has recently been caught in another scandal; The PhD from the University of Zimbabwe she claimed to earn in 2014 was rescinded amidst claims of it being phoney.
