  Photos of the lavish 25-bedroom mansion owned by President Robert Mugabe and his wife Grace have been revealed by TheZimbabwean.  Photographs of the plush palace, dubbed 'Blue Roof', show the 93-year-old tyrant immerses himself in luxury, far away from the pain and suffering felt by ordinary people in the cash-strapped nation. Information by TheZimbabwean revealed that the 25-bedroom house is valued at a whopping $10 million (N3.6billion) in Harare.

Images show the extravagant property decked with marble floors, expensive chandeliers and a swimming pool. .
