Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe has said he is "not a Yankee", as he addressed around 50,000 of his supporters at a rally held in the capital, Harare, to honour him on Africa Day.

The 92-year-old also ruled out the possibility of stepping down from office, and hit out at rival leaders in the ruling Zanu-PF party for plotting to succeed him.
Mr Mugabe added:
There should never be little groups to promote so and so. Those little groups are treasonous groups, they poison the party.
I belong to my people. I don't like to be American. I am not a Yankee. I am not a Briton... I belong to Zimbabwe.
I am at the service of the people. If the people feel I should go, I go. But at the moment where do you want me to go? I am not going anywhere."
