PRESIDENT Robert Mugabe has said he has no plans to retire and will stand in the next presidential election if his party endorses his candidacy — a move which will heighten fears that he is determined to be president for life.

PRESIDENT Robert Mugabe has further immersed himself in the ongoing diamonds row by defending controversial mining companies Mbada Diamonds and Canadile Miners which have been accused of involvement in shady deals with government.
