Under house arrest by the Army. It's increasingly looking like the reign of one of the most infamous leaders of our time is coming to an end.

I always thought he had enough power to die in the roll, but it seems his push to have his wife replace has resulted in a coup. Pretty big moment on the world political stage and I guess we have to hope it doesn't start some kind of power vacuum.

Let’s not fall into the trap of thinking anyone deposing Mugabe is the good guy, military rule is always a terrible idea. I mean look how well Egypt turned out when they got rid of Morsi.

Be quite ironic if SADC and AU accept Mugabe's ouster by coup, but in 2008 when Morgan Tsvangirai polled the most votes they backed Mugabe.

I am reminded of when WG Grace refused to leave the wicket despite having his stumps knocked over.

I love the fact that he intends to lead the congress in December despite no longer being party leader.

While it is all good fun to watch, the hard truth is that one dictator will be replaced by another.
