On 15 November 2017, in the wake of over a year of protests against his government as well as Zimbabwe’s rapidly declining economy, Mugabe was placed under house arrest by the country’s national army in a coup d’état.[20][21] On 19 November 2017, ZANU-PF sacked Robert Mugabe as party leader and appointed former Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa in his place.[22] On 21 November 2017, Mugabe tendered his resignation prior to impeachment proceedings being completed.[23] On 30 July 2018 Zimbabwe held its general elections,[24] which was won by the ZANU-PF party led by Emmerson Mnangagwa.[25] Nelson Chamisa who was leading the main opposition party MDC Alliance contested the election results and filed a petition to the Constitution Court of Zimbabwe.[26] The court confirmed Mnangagwa’s victory, making him the newly elected president after Mugabe.[27][28]
