Mugabe keeps post

President Robert Mugabe will keep his job and head the cabinet under a power-sharing deal in Zimbabwe, but the opposition outnumbers his ZANU-PF party among senior ministers, an opposition senator said on Friday.

Giving first details of the deal reached on Thursday, Senator David Coltart said Morgan Tsvangirai, leader of the main opposition MDC group, would be prime minister and chair a council of ministers that supervised the cabinet.
