ZANU-PF ENDORSE 92yr OLD FOR PRESIDENCY
Zimbabwe's governing Zanu-PF party has confirmed President Robert Mugabe as its candidate for the 2018 elections.
Mr Mugabe, who is 92, has been in power since independence from Britain in 1980.
At the party's conference, the Zanu-PF youth wing even proposed that Mr Mugabe should be declared president for life.
However, there have been unprecedented protests this year against Zimbabwe's economic turmoil and Mr Mugabe's leadership.
The Zanu-PF has also suffered serious infighting as factions battle it out to succeed Mr Mugabe once he eventually leaves.
His supporters broke into thunderous applause and chanted "tongai, tongai baba" [rule, rule father] as the Zanu-PF annual conference in the south-eastern town of Masvingo nominated Mr Mugabe on Saturday.
'One family'
In his acceptance speech, Mr Mugabe called for an end to party infighting.
"We agreed that conflicts should end. Infighting should end. The party ideology should be followed," he said.
"Let us be one. We are one family, the family of Zanu-PF bound together by the fact of understanding between its members."
Mr Mugabe has blamed the country's economic problems on sabotage by Western critics of his policies.
Amid violent protests earlier this year he warned there would be no Zimbabwean uprising similar to the "Arab Spring".

Celine Dion’s Jupiter Island Estate Now $27 Million Cheaper
Despite this one having its own water park, Celine Dion is having trouble selling another of her opulent mansions.
The Los Angeles Times reports that the Canadian singer, who has a residency in Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, has lowered the price of one of her properties precipitously—from $72.5 million to $45.5 million. At its original asking price, the Jupiter Island mansion was one of Florida’s costliest homes when it hit the market around two years ago.
The 5.7-acre estate boasts two spacious guesthouses, a tennis pavilion, water park with two connecting swimming pools and a Bahamian-inspired main residence. Still, that’s not been enough to secure a sale.
A Titanic-size pool is just one of the features that’s failing to impress at Celine Dion’s Jupiter Island estate. View the Complete Jupiter Island Listing
Christie’s International Real Estate
The Grammy winner used this estate as her main residence before she relocated to Las Vegas. Other famous residents of Jupiter Island include golfer Tiger Woods and actor Burt Reynolds.
The 47-year-old has also had difficulty selling her Île Gagnon property in Quebec, which went up for sale in 2012. A report emerged that it was sold last month, but Mansion Global was unable to confirm this; the property is still listed as for sale.
The 24,000-square-foot, six-bedroom French Normandy Chateau-style property, built in 2001, is located on a private island not far from downtown Montreal. It features a private bridge, wine cellar with tasting room and a wood panelled library. Asking price? $18.9 million.

Rihanna tops charts and speaks on Beyoncé 'feud'
Rihanna is putting in "Work, work, work, work, work.The singer's "Anti" album has returned to the top of the Billboard 200 chart, and she's speaking out on rumors that she has an ongoing feud with fellow superstar Beyoncé.
Nonsense, Rihanna told Vogue.
"Here's the deal," Rihanna said. "They just get so excited to feast on something that's negative. Something that's competitive. Something that's, you know, a rivalry. And that's just not what I wake up to. Because I can only do me. And nobody else is going to be able to do that."
The singer, who graces the cover of the magazine's April issue, said she is very much bored with music's pop formula. With her new album, "I just gravitated toward the songs that were honest to where I'm at right now," she said.
The strategy appears to be working, as Billboard reports that "Anti" is Rihanna's second No. 1 album and the first to spend more than a week at No. 1.
Rihanna is currently on tour to support the album, and a fan recently shocked her with his vocal skills.
The singer extended her mic to Terah Stewart at her concert in Cincinnati on Saturday and got quite the surprise when he perfectly sang a bit of her song "FourFiveSeconds." She responded, "Oh, s**t."
