Sources say only five Zimbabwe cabinet ministers and the attorney-general turned up for a meeting called by President Robert Mugabe as 17 others opted to attend a meeting to plan the 93-year-old leader’s impeachment. Sources said on Tuesday that the meeting is the first called by Mugabe since a military takeover on Nov. 15. He has called for the weekly cabinet meeting on Tuesday, which would be the first time ministers meet him since the Nov. 15 military takeover dubbed “Operation Restore Legacy”. Zimbabwe’s information minister said on Tuesday he did not know if ministers would attend the cabinet meeting. Mnangagwa said he has fled Zimbabwe because of a threat to his life after being purged from the ruling party.
