President Robert Mugabe Robert Mugabe has been asked to step down from presidency and end his nearly four decades of rule, in a latest development in country's ongoing crisis.
The ruling ZANU-PF party has given Monday noon as the deadline or else he would have to face impeachment in Parliament.
The 93-year-old autocrat has already been voted out from the party following a de facto military coup.
According to latest media reports, Mugabe is negotiating a deal to end his 37-year-long reign.
The ZANU-PF has replaced Mugabe with recently dismissed Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa as new party leader.
Mugabe's 52-year-old wife Grace has also been booted out from the party over accusations of "preaching hate, divisiveness and assuming roles and powers not delegated to the office."
The controversial first lady used to be her husband's secretary as well.
