BREAKING NEWS: Emmerson Mnangagwa is Zimbabwe’s new President

Who is Zimbabwe’s new President….It is Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa

Zimbabwe’s Robert Mugabe resigned as president with immediate effect on Tuesday after 37 years in power, shortly after Parliament began impeachment proceedings against him.

“My decision to resign is voluntary on my part and arises from my concern for the welfare of the people of Zimbabwe and my desire for a smooth, non-violent transfer of power,” said Mugabe in his letter which was read out in parliament, sparking cheers and dancing.

Ruling party chief whip Lovemore Matuke told The Associated Press that recently fired Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa would take over as the country’s leader within 48 hours. Matuke said Mnangagwa, who fled the country after his firing, “is not far from here”.

Matuke said they look forward to Mugabe doing the handover of power “so that Mnangagwa moves with speed to work for the country”.
