Masvingo - Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe on Saturday told cheering party loyalists he was not ready to step down. There had been frenzied speculation that Mugabe, who turns 80 next year, would use the Zanu PF conference this weekend in the southern city of Masvingo to announce he was resigning or selecting a successor. But instead he told around 3 000 party loyalists in his closing address that his country had given him a mandate to continue ruling. "I must make good that mandate," he said to deafening applause. "If I feel I cannot do it (govern) anymore, I'll come to you in an honourable way and say, 'Ah no. I think I've now come to a stage where I need a rest.' I'll tell you that. "I haven't told you that, have I?" he told the jubilant crowd of supporters. Mugabe has been in power here for the past 23 years since the country gained independence from Britain.

Who would have thought it. No intention to bow out for the grace of his country. Fancy that in Africa where the politicians are usually so public minded
I don't think he'll even see the 180 grain bullet flying at 3200 fps from a 300 RUM.
I don't evem think he will feel it and we will forget about premium bullets we don't need penetration just something that will blow up as soon as it enters it skull !
The funeral should be done with a closed casket !
