The Zaire Dictator, Former Congo dictator Mobutu Seseseko’s mansion is now home to rats, bats, snakes and birds. Lesson to greedy rulers

This is the House of the former Zaire [now DRC] dictator, Field Marshal Mobutu Sese Seko Kukungbendu Wazabanga.
The magnificent structure constructed on a large expanse of land [equivalent to a minimal game park] was built in his home village called Gbadolite at the cost £100m.

It was considered the “epitome of decor and elegance” in Zaire and beyond. The super structure was decorated with Italian marble, Katangese high-karate gold plated doors and windows, Spanish floor tiles, automatic American air conditioning, Isreali state-of-the-art communication systems, king-size swimming pool, a private airport control tower, 3-4 inch bullet-proof glassware, 5 presidential suites, 6 Jacuzzis and surrounded by a mini game park full of all kinds of wildlife, including Indian tigers.

The structure, which at the time of Mobutu’s death was ranked one of the most magnificent private castles ever owned by a sitting Head of State, is now home to wild rats, tropical snakes, gecko lizards, mega snails, scorpions, birds and thousands of wild insects.

Dictators should learn from this. Where are Mobutu’s kids to take over their father’s estate?

So shall it be for all leaders who looted public resources unless they change and return their loots to public coffers.

Having seen all this pictures of money wasted which no human can inhabit, one can say the end of the wicked, stolen treasure often do not add value to their legacy. No matter how strong their legacy, once it is done with evil there is almost no good that can be spoken of the properties built with it.

All the above pictures are propertied built with wealth which could have being shared to the nation, poor masses, dying and sick citizens of the country, but was used and kept by just one man.
