On this day 90 years ago Zimbabwe's longest serving president, Robert Mugabe was born. Addressing party faithfuls, to mark the occassion, he said he's not ready to vacate the president's sit.
"When the day comes and I retire, yes, sure, the day will come, but I do not want to leave my party in tatters. I want to leave it intact".
Mugabe has said that he would leave when he is 94years old, that would be in 2018, after completing his current tenure for which he was elected last year.
Mugabe has ruled Zimbabwe for 34 years, since the country gained independence. He is the longest serving President in the whole of Africa and is also the oldest president Africa has ever had.
