Mugabe cried, lamented betrayal by lieutenants when he resigned
Harare
ZIMBABWE'S former president Robert Mugabe cried and lamented "betrayal by his lieutenants" when he agreed to step down last week under pressure from the military and his party after 37 years in power, the Standard newspaper said in its Sunday edition.
The country's new president, Emmerson Mnangagwa, a former Mugabe loyalist, was sworn in on Friday and attention is focused on whether he will name a broad-based government or select figures from Mr Mugabe's era.
