War games in Zimbabwe could spell doom - expert

Dr. Wafula Okumu of the Institute for Security Studies (ISS) based in Pretoria said this week that sending troops into Zimbabwe to oust President Robert Mugabe will not yield desirable results. In fact, he says, "that could bring disastrous" consequences.

He was responding to Mmegi enquiries following Kenyan Prime Minister, Raila Odinga's call for the deployment of troops into Zimbabwe to effect regime change. Mail & Guardian online reported Odinga as having said on Sunday, "Mugabe's case deserves no less than investigations by the International Criminal Court in The Hague".
