“The President Is Gone” – Zimbabwe Ruling Party Officially Ousts Mugabe

Update: Initial media reports about Mugabe’s ouster were confusing: While the country’s ruling party had voted to expel him, several sources quoted by western media outlets said the vote was only the trigger to start the process of removing Mugabe, and that he is still technically president of Zimbabwe.
Fortunately, the ruling Zanu-PF party have issued a quick clarification: Mugabe – who has obstinantly refused to officially abdicate in accordance with the military’s demands – has until noon tomorrow to resign. If he doesn’t, he will be impeached.
