Broadcaster based here in the u. K. He says mcgarvey support is dwindling fast and he could face them pitch for votes to step down. I think im got pillars of support are dwindling as theres been pointed out by by many people this military coup has actually been more peaceful than elections in zimbabwe so this basically is generating the euphoria that you are seeing there is a lot of nervous excitement people are warming up to the army theyre looking at them as heroes weve seen whats one as president. Mugabe to step down i think mugabe is lost in all of this hes fully aware that the army needs him. On the success so hes holding onto this card we were told in negotiations with centering around him being given safe passage and immunity but i think the latest as you can see from the reports is that hes insisting on finishing his term in office so i think those strategizing this military coup in a sense are now looking at the party route trying to have him removed as leader of zanu p. F. And this talk that they might actually have him impeached as early as tuesday so basically its a mexican standoff its a matter of who blinks first but i also says that telling us the generals are not backing down and if refuses a graceful exit they will obviously humiliate him through an impeachment process and we all know people in the opposition and even within zanu p. F. Are fed up of mugabe so there will be a lot of support for any impeachment process in parliament.
