(22 Nov 2017) Zimbabwe's incoming leader Emmerson Mnangagwa boarded a flight bound for Zimbabwe on Wednesday after meeting South African President Jacob Zuma in Pretoria.
Mnangagwa, 75, is to be sworn in as Zimbabwe's new leader Friday, following Robert Mugabe's stunning resignation amid impeachment proceedings against him.
After meeting with Zuma in Pretoria, Mnangagwa went to Johannesburg's Lanseria airport where he boarded a private jet that took off for Harare.
Mnangagwa is expected to arrive at Manyame Air Base in the capital, Harare, where crowds have already gathered.
He is to be sworn in as Zimbabwe's new president on Friday, said the speaker of parliament after the ruling ZANU-PF party notified him of its nomination of Mnangagwa to replace Mugabe until the end of the term next year.
