There were a handful of people in the auditorium when president Emmerson Mnangagwa delivered his speech at the 74th United Nations General Assembly session in New York.

The difference has been attributed to a sense of anticipation that overwhelmed delegates when Mugabe would take to the podium. Mugabe was known for speaking freely and frankly. Watch the video below.
