By Own Correspondent| Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa says he is taking good care of his ailing predecessor, Robert Mugabe, who is currently in Singapore for treatment.

Mnangagwa said this in an interview with the national broadcaster:

“He has not been feeling well. At the age of 95, I think he is reasonably in good health. Currently he is not in the country.

He left on April 2 to Singapore, he will be away for about 29 days and he will come back.

I am making sure that I do the facilitation for him to receive treatment, take him to Singapore and to bring him back, all the facilities, I make sure that it is done.”

Mnangagwa ascended to power in November 2017 in what analysts described as a “soft” military coup.
