“Mugabe must quit now” – Zimbabwe’s former Vice-President

(UTV|ZIMBABWE) – Zimbabwe’s former Vice-President, whose sacking led to last week’s Army takeover, has urged President Robert Mugabe to resign immediately.

Emmerson Mnangagwa said he fled abroad 2-weeks ago when he learned of a plot to kill him, and he would not return until he was sure of his security.

The ruling Zanu-PF party is expected to begin impeachment proceedings in Parliament later on Tuesday (21).

President Mugabe is accused of allowing his wife to usurp Constitutional power.

Speaking from an undisclosed location on Tuesday, Mr. Mnangagwa said the 93-year-old President should heed the clarion call of his people and step down.

“I told the President that I would not return home now until I am satisfied of my personal security, because of the manner and treatment given to me upon being fired,” he said in a statement.
