Zimbabwe's ruling party is set to begin impeachment proceedings against President Robert Mugabe on Tuesday as government ministers boycotted the meeting in preparation for his removal. The impeachment was prompted after the embattled president ignored the midday resignation ultimatum on Monday. Mugabe lost the confidence of the ruling party and was removed as its leader. "Given the events that followed my dismissal I cannot trust my life in President Mugabe's hands,” he said. Mugabe is accused of allowing his wife, Grace Mugabe, to “usurp constitutional power,” according to the BBC.
