Mugabe issues warning to Bush

Embattled President Robert Mugabe warned US President George W Bush on the eve of his Africa visit that if he is coming to dictate what should happen in Zimbabwe, he should go just home.

Addressing a rally of ruling party supporters in the south of the country, Mugabe criticised the Bush administration which has been increasingly critical of his authoritarian rule and have urged him to work with the opposition to pull Zimbabwe out of its economic and political crisis.
