Mugabe's party held at a luxury hotel in the famed Victoria Falls resort. Elephants were reportedly slaughtered for the feast, which held on the hotel’s golf course. Seven huge birthday cakes were on display and at a point during the party, assisted by his wife Grace, the Zimbabwean leader, who was surrounded by family members, threw 91 balloons into the air.
Critics lampooned the scale of the festivities, calling them “obscene” in a country where millions live in poverty. Mugabe, who has ruled Zimbabwe since independence from Britain in 1980, is the world’s oldest leader.
