Not much chance of that happening unfortunatley. Mugabe has most of the army and its generals onside. Threats of violence, should Mugabe lose next year's election, are already being made.
Brigadier General David Sigauke is threatening a military coup if Mugabe loses the coming election. He told soldiers at a graduation ceremony that Zimbabweans should vote wisely to defend their 'sovereignty' failing which the army would intervene. He is quoted as saying, 'as soldiers, we have the privilege to be able to defend this task on two fronts, the first being through the ballot box and second being the use of the barrel of the gun should the worse comes to the worst.'
So, in other words, vote for Mugabe or pay the consequences.
