Reports from Zimbabwe say that the 93-year old Zimbabwean
President, Mr. Robert Mugabe, has agreed to step down as president.
This is coming a few hours after the ruling party, Zanu-PF,
announced his sack as the leader of the party.

His wife, Grace Mugabe, was removed as leader of the Zanu-PF women league. Reports say she has also been expelled from the party.
Mugabe has been under house arrest since Wednesday November 15 following his unceremonious removal from office and takeover of the running of the country by the armed forces led by Gen Constantino Chiwenga.

reports that the ruling party “had given the 93-year-old less than 24 hours to
quit as head of state or face impeachment, an attempt to secure a peaceful end
to his tenure after a de facto coup.”
