ZIMBABWEAN tyrant Robert Mugabe was this morning booted out
of office - as a military coup ended his 37-year iron grip on
power.
The country's ruling Zanu-PF party confirmed the southern African
nation's 93-year-old president had been "detained" in a "bloodless
transition".
Explosions last night rocked the capital of Zimbabwe as the
ringleaders of a feared coup promised dictator Robert
Mugabe was safe for now
Soldiers had earlier seized the country's state TV station after
tanks rolled into capital Harare.
Vice-president Emmerson Mnangagwa has been installed a leader,
a Twitter statement from the party said.
The statement, issued this morning, said "Zimbabwe was not
owned by Mugabe or his wife" - a reference to Grace Mugabe, who
the statement accuses of "taking advantage" of the elderly despot.
It added: "Last night the first family was detained and are safe,
both for the constitution and the sanity of the nation this was
necessary.
"Today begins a fresh new era and comrade Mnangagwa will help
us achieve a better Zimbabwe."
Earlier, one plotter, wearing army fatigues, stormed the national TV
station and told the nation the army was "targeting criminals" and
was not planning "a military takeover of government".

The soldier, named as Major General S.B. Moyo, added that tyrant
Mugabe and his family were "safe and sound" but warned "any
provocation will be met with an appropriate response".
The dramatic scenes came as heavy gunfire and shellfire was
reported in capital Harare in the early hours of this morning.
A heavily-armed force was yesterday seen rolling into the city and
are believed to be targeting politicians around Mugabe that they
consider "criminals".
Major Moyo added: “We are only targeting criminals around who
him who are committing crimes that are causing social and
economic suffering in the country in order to bring them to justice.
“As soon as we have accomplished our mission, we expect that
the situation will return to normalcy.”
The leaders of the action and the reason for it remains unclear.
Last night the first family was detained and are safe, both
for the constitution and the sanity of the nation this was
necessary. Neither Zimbabwe nor ZANU are owned by
Mugabe and his wife. Today begins a fresh new era and
comrade Mnangagwa will help us achieve a better
Zimbabwe.

These sit tight leaders never learn till they are remarkably disgraced

They should have kicked him out years ago.

This guy that can give funny quotes,eyahh,and they said his vice president is taking over from him,which means he was responsible for the coup.
