A furious Robert Mugabe has gone on national television to insist that he is still in control as Zimbabwe's President.
The 90-year-old, who is Africa's oldest leader, is trying to reassert his authority in the former British colony amid fears that rivals in the ZANU-PF party are plotting to overthrow him.
He said: "Some are saying 'Mr Mugabe is old, so he should step down'. Me, who brought the party to where it is now, who experienced colonial rule, jail, and was in the bush alongside the freedom fighters?
"Then along comes a mere child. No! When my time comes, I will tell you."
Mugabe has been in power since 1980, when Zimbabwe secured its independence.
But younger politicians, such as Vice President Joice Mujuru, have been tipped as potential successors when he steps down.
There have also been rumours that Mugabe's wife, Grace, may have ambitions to take over from her husband.
The 49-year-old has secured a surprise nomination to run the influential women's wing of ZANU-PF, in what would be her first foray into politics.
However, her husband is expected to be re-confirmed as ZANU-PF's leader at its annual congress in December.
