Mugabe's AU reign ends

After jetting into Harare on Friday evening to meet with Equatorial Guinea President Todoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, President Robert Mugabe is expected to fly to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to hand over the chairmanship of the African Union.

Critics have described the nonagenarian's tenure at the helm of the AU as one of the worst ever after he allegedly failed to impact positively on the specter of hunger, poverty and wars that continue to plague the continent.  

Other critics said Mugabe was not to blame as the AU chairmanship is merely an honorary one.
