Robert Mugabe's son posted a defiant message on social media on Sunday
before his dictator father refused to release his grip on power.Chatunga Bellamine Mugabe, Robert's eldest son by second wife Grace,
wrote on Facebook: 'You can't fire a Revolutionary leader! Zanu PF is
nothing without President Mugabe.'
Using the name of Mugabe's clan, he added: 'Gushungo will always remain the champion of champions!
'Proud of you Gushungo. Proud of Dad. Gushungo always and forever to
death.' Robert Mugabe, 93, had been widely expected to resign on Sunday
night as he gave a speech from the capital Harare, but sensationally
failed to do so.
Surrounded by a cabal of generals who have been keeping him under house
arrest, the 93-year-old instead vowed to clean up tensions within the
party himself.
He announced a party conference would take place within the coming weeks
and vowed to preside over it, despite being removed as party leader
earlier in the day.
Military officials say plans to impeach Mugabe will now go ahead on Monday.
It is not known where Chatunga Mugabe currently is, or whether he had advanced knowledge of his father's plans.
Chatunga and his brother Robert Jr had been living in South Africa
before the military seized power earlier this week. They have not been
seen in public since.
Their mother Grace, whose grab for power prompted the turmoil that is
currently gripping Zimbabwe, has also been hidden from the public eye.
