		</div><p>Zimbabwe&#8217;s President Robert Mugabe has described his wife Grace, an increasingly political figure, as &#8220;fireworks&#8221; in an interview marking his 93rd birthday.</p>
<p>While the leader&#8217;s birthday is today, a large celebration is scheduled for Saturday in tribute to Mr Mugabe, who has ruled since independence from white minority rule in 1980.</p>
<p>Mrs Mugabe has defended her husband against critics who say it is time for him to step down, saying the ruling party should field him as a corpse if he dies before elections next year.</p>
<p>In an interview shown late on Monday on state broadcaster ZBC, Mr Mugabe said the women&#8217;s wing of the ruling Zanu-PF party chose Grace Mugabe as its head because of her political ambitions.<br />
Mr Mugabe also repeated his pledge to stand in elections in 2018.</p>
