President Robert Mugabe has declared that he will rule until he dies.
In his hour-long speech at the closing session of the African Union, Mugabe who turns 92 in 22 days times, vowed before African presidents that he would lead Zimbabwe until God called him.
"I will be there until God says come, but as long as am alive I will head the country, forward ever, backward never," he said.
Mugabe said those who were saying he must hand over power to others were not democratic.
"There is Obama today. What is he? A voice made to speak their language, not our language.
"Blacks suffer in the US today, there is no education for all, health for all."
