The government of Zimbabwe is denying a report that President Robert Mugabe has suffered a heart attack. Presidential spokesman George Charamba told reporters on Thursday that the report by the website ZimEye.net was false. He said the report was published to increase the number of users, or people who visit the website, so its owners could increase their earnings. Reports that Mugabe’s health is poor are common. He will be 92 next month. He leaves the country for a long vacation every January. The president’s spokesman does not usually react to reports about the president’s health. But this time, Charamba complained about frequent reports that Mugabe has died. He said “you cannot doubt that there will be a story on the president’s alleged death every January.” Mugabe has ruled Zimbabwe since 1980, when the country gained independence from Britain. He is the world’s oldest head of state.
