President Robert Mugabe is reported to be at the Zimbabwe Open University (ZOU) where he is expected to officiate at the university’s graduation ceremony. This is President Mugabe’s first public appearance ever since the Zimbabwe Defence Forces seized power in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
However, Higher Education Minister Professor Jonathan Moyo, who usually attends all such graduations with the president, is absent. He is reported to be in military custody together with other members of the G40 Faction.
