The media of late has been awash with pictures and videos of the President Robert Mugabe struggling to walk with some analysts suggesting he could do with a walking stick.
His health has continued to be a topical issue both in international and domestic politics as many wonder, when he would retire, considering his ripe old age of 93.
Defiantly, Mr Mugabe insists he will only quit office, when his party and people ask him to do so - not as a result of international pressure. President Mugabe has ruled Zimbabwe since 1980 and is one of Africa's longest-serving heads of state.
Zanu-PF just out of the blues sent out a tweet saying, "President Mugabe will live longer than you." This has fueled fresh failing health rumours.
