Harare, Zimbabwe (AP) -- Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe is in Singapore for medical reasons, prompting opposition figures to question whether the 93-year-old still has the stamina to run the country.

State media, quoting an information ministry statement, says the world's oldest head of state left Friday for a "routine" medical checkup and will be back in Zimbabwe later this week. This is Mugabe's third Singapore visit this year.
