Pretoria, Nov 14 (Prensa Latina) South Africa and Zambia are closely following the events in Zimbabwe, a country in which a coup d''état is apparently underway, worried that any escalation of the situation might harm neighboring nations.
The media sources indicated that President Robert Mugabe is in 'an important meeting with the cabinet', while the armed forces are mobilized and waiting for orders from his leader General Constantino Chiwenga.
Meanwhile, the South African newspaper Globe and Mail said today that a bloody succession in Zimbabwe would be triggered by the reckless actions taken by Grace Mugabe (Robert's wife), who is seeking to seize power in this country.
According to the newspaper, Grace has imposed on her husband to take his most likely successor, vice president until last week Emmerson Mnangagwa, out of power.
Mugabe is likely to appoint his wife next week as the new vice president and, constitutionally, he would pave the way for her to become president.
An article posted by the online newspaper News24 said that Mnangagwa has had repeated confrontations with Grace, in her attempts to replace her husband when he dies.
Mugabe, who will turn 94 years old in February, rules Zimbabwe since 1980.
