President Mugabe comforts Jacob Zuma says 'we need each other even more now than before'

Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe has comforted embattled South Africa's President Jacob Zuma during his visit to Zimbabwe: "We are happy you are still in one piece in spite of what the papers are writing every day."
Speaking at the opening of a Bi-National Commission in Harare on Thursday, the 92-year old leader told Zuma: "Comrade president, we need each other even more now than before."
Both leaders are facing growing calls for them to step down, Mugabe from #ThisFlag protesters and Zuma in the wake of the #StateCaptureReport.
Mugabe, who has been in power since 1980, said Zimbabwe and South Africa "face renewed assaults on our independence and sovereignty".
The Zimbabwe president spoke in a much weaker voice than normal and hesitated at times during his speech. There have been concerns over his health for a long time.
