Tens of thousands of people joined rallies across the country on saturday calling for mr mugabe to go. There are also crowds outside his official residence. They wa nt to outside his official residence. They want to reinstate the Vice President. Despite all of this the vetera n president. Despite all of this the veteran president remains defiant. Our africa editor, Feargal Keane reports from harare. Something happened inside the people today. A shared energy that helped them into the streets. They were there on the big streets and small. A common purpose in a place so long divided. Voices that wouldnt have dared speak of Robert Mugabe a few days ago now sang his political requiem. This is a historic moment. It is so special. We have waited for this for 37 years you have come back from england, you are happy to see this, im sure. Indeed, i am very happy. This is a new beginning for the people of zimbabwe. What i am seeing here is the death of a dynasty. All of the faces of the nation came into harare. Joy was unrestrained. And exubera ntly expressed. Who knows what freedom the military coup will deliver . But an army that was once an instrument of oppression is now celebrated. This tells you everything, this is what the people are thinking in harare. This is what the people feel about the army. These are moments of Genuine Leather oration. They thank the soldiers as their saviours. Genuine celebration. Fear has been cast off and expectations awakened. Watching the march i met this man, a paramedic with a young family. Do you believe the army will allow you to be free . Yes. If they dont . Well, it is difficult for them not to allow us to be free, because we have been free, we just never exercise our freedom. Viva the people of zimbabwe. Viva. Those who forced this moment include many who were ardent supporters of Robert Mugabe. Now they call for the departure of the president and his wife. The people of zimbabwe have spoken, and the people of zimbabwe have said you and your husband should go today and not tomorrow. Robert mugabe is under intense pressure, yet this afternoon was refusing to stand down. At one of his official residences, the army was pushing back demonstrators, but they would not leave the area. So people are very angry and they want to get through, past these army lines, to this official residence, one of the president s official residences. A man told me we want to get in and tell these people what we think of them. Everybody here is now certain that the moment of Robert Mugabes departure is drawing near. Lets get the very latest now from my colleague ben brown, whos in harare. Some extraordinary scenes we are watching. What is it like where you are . Amazing to see such euphoria turned on the streets of harare. There were big demonstrations. The people who demonstrated today, it was unthinkable in years gone by that they would even question the leadership of Robert Mugabe. To come out onto the streets and demand he resigns and resigns now. They have lost all the fear they had. This follows the fact the army have lost faith with Robert Mugabe and zanu pf have lost faith with him as well. What we saw today was people power. Tens of thousands on the streets showing they have lost faith with Robert Mugabe and demanding he steps down now. Indications are that he will not. People close to him how the saying he will not resign. He would rather die than resign. The army says it is having more talks with him tomorrow to persuade him, oi with him tomorrow to persuade him, or tried to dissuade him, to go quietly and with dignity. We also have this meeting of the zanu pf party, who say they are going to dismiss him. Then we could be seeing the Vice President brought back in. He was rejected any a few days ago. Yes. This is the point. This is what Robert Mugabe is facing. He knows time is running out for him. He does not have any friends or allies left. Nobody in the country wants him still to be president of the country. If he refuses to resign, the leadership of zanu pf a meeting on sunday to discuss the posing him. He will no longer be leader of zanu pf. On tuesday we expect parliament would then meet to begin possibly impeaching him. In other words this would all be done constitutionally. There has been a military takeover but the army does not want to make it look like they are getting rid of him by force, through a coup detat. They wanted to be done constitutionally. If the party him as leader and the parliament deposes him has dashes as president , that is what the army would like to see. They would not be blamed as being an army, the military, that has forcefully deposed the president. The question is, hell ever replaces him, the question that fergal keane was asking people on the streets is, do people really believe that would bring them a proper freedom . That is absolutely the key question. The Vice President has been seen as a real strongman of mugabes leadership, his government, in years gone by. Many people accuse him of being in charge of atrocities will stop he has not been known as a champion of democracy and human rights. Some people here are saying we might lose mugabe and have somebody not much better in his place. On the other hand, there are signs that the military would like to install him. He is theirfavoured candidate, as leader of a new Transitional Authority but with numbers of the opposition involved as well. The opposition mdc. They might think matters more palatable to the outside world. Ben brown joining us live from harare.

Huge crowds in harare have marched on president mugabes residence as the military prepares to meet the embattled leader and persuade him to step down. The lebanese Prime Minister has met the french president in paris. He has confirmed he will be going home in the next few days. Lets get more on our top story and president mugabe being forced from power. Alex magaisa, from kent law school, was the chief of staff for former Prime Minister morgan tsvangirai, who leads the opposition to mr mugabe. He gave us his thoughts on the recent developments in his home country. This is the first time in a very long time there has been a huge convergence of all the different forces in timber dashes back in zimbabwe. I think it is an opportunity for all the parties to Work Together and see if they can chart the way forward. It is important for them to understand what the future holds, in particular making sure that the road to democracy is prepared. That is something that has been lacking in zimbabwe. We know the military that intervened seemed to favour the former Vice President but zimbabweans must be given an opportunity to make a choice as to whos should lead them. Who should. Mr mugabe is a tough man and he will fight to the end of the bid is not surprising that even though there are offers on the table he is unwilling to take what would be a dignified exit and it might end up very ugly. Mr mugabe has seen lots of people coming to his rallies over the past few months and this made him believed he is too well loved. I think all of that was a facade. People were doing it because that is what they believed they were expected to do. In the last few days his party is rejecting him and i think he will see very soon that he will be politically isolated. Doug coltart is a human rights lawyer, and activist in zimbabwe. Hes been attending the rally in harare, and joins me via skype i expected cannot believe the scenes. What has it been like for you today . It has been an incredible day. For many of us, we were not sure we would ever see a day like this where we marched on statehouse. It was incredible, the scenes. The atmosphere was euphoric and joyous. I was not alive during the zimbabwean independence but many people told me that the atmosphere felt. They had not felt that since Independence Day for the really it has been an incredible day. And yet we have Robert Mugabe remaining defiant. He has not gone yet. Do you fear that maybe the jubilation and celebration is a little bit premature . I would not say it is premature . I would not say it is premature but i think there is good reason for why people feel this energy, this excitement, the transition, and irreversible transition, and irreversible transition has begun. Certainly there is a lot of reasons for caution and zimbabweans, we are not through the woods by any means. Zimbabwe mugabe needs to step down. Then there are huge queries about the agenda of the military and the potential for imposition of a new leader. I think the fear for many people is that this willjust remain an internal transition within zanu pf and will not bring real change. Today, seeing the masses come out in such an unprecedented scale, it really takes us down a path where ordinary citizens are starting to demand that they want to have a stake in this transition process. And i suppose all eyes are on the former Vice President will stop the question is whether he would we any different from Robert Mugabe. He may still be seen as the old guard. Absolutely. It seems that the military does favour the former Vice President. To that degree he probably needs to have a significant and Important Role in the transition process. He does seem to have the backing of the military. He comes from the same chequered past that zanu pf has been through. He was involved in many of the atrocities that zanu pf have committed. I think what we are saying is it is essential that this is an inclusive transition process where people from all political parties, civil societies, trade unions. We will have to leave it there. Itll be very interesting to see what happens. It is an image of defiance that summoned that venezuelans were emboldened by. The former mayor of caracas a staunch critic. Safe having crossed the border into colombia. Until last week he was under house arrest, accused of plotting a coup to overthrow the government. He spent more than 1000 daysin government. He spent more than 1000 days in detention and now speaks for venezuelan political prisoners. Translation i will concentrate on travelling the world in excise. I will contribute and be an extension of the hope of the venezuelan people to get rid of this regime, this dictatorship. Venezuela is the victim of a regime that is colluding with drug traffickers. On saturday, he was meeting the spanish Prime Minister. He says he has not gone to madrid to seek asylum but political support. Translation i have asked mr roy to continue to put pressure against the tyranny in venezuela. He is a tyrant who uses force and seeks to subdue people like me. In caracas, the president was sarcastic. He commentated on the escape. The vampire is flying free in the world. He says he is going to spain to live the high life, drinking wine and grand beer. You can keep the vampire over there. But he could reenergise ina over there. But he could reenergise in a position that has been criticised for not coming up with a plan for venezuelan. Four months of protests ended earlier this year with more than 130 people dead and no change of government. He is now free to become the most high profile opposition leader, speaking against the president outside of venezuela.
