Mugabe who is 93 years old has been trying to cling to power despite fierce resistance from his opponents over the past week, during which time the military partially took over power and Mugabe was expelled from his own ZANU-PF ruling party and put under house arrest with his wife.
The parliament this morning (November 21, 2017), had begun a legal process to impeach Mugabe after he failed to meet the dateline yesterday (November 20, 2017), imposed by the ZANU-PF ruling party for him to resign. The sudden announcement by Mugabe halted the impeachment hearing that had been initiated by parliament against him.
