Mugabe Refuses To Resign
Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe on Sunday gave a televised address to the nation and confounded all speculations that he was about to announce his resignation.
Mugabe, flanked by military commanders and Catholic cleric Fidelis Mukonori, gave a long-winded speech where he said he is aware of issues that need to be addressed in the country.
