The honest truth is that Zimbabwe is suffering from a severe power shortage, having to spend millions of forex to fund the minimal supplies that we get. If Zim were to have a power plant such as this it would aid development as that forex could stay within the country and be used for other things such as health care and education. I believe many people don't take mugabe seriously but all his ideas are not zanny, and this is an idea that is worth researching. What is most to fear is that with the negligence of the current government such a plant may not be safe for society. It may suffer a meltdown or it may be used for weapons. But this is one resource that Zimbabwe should start eploiting at it own terms.
