ZANU-PF Press Statement.
The ZANU PF revolutionary party joins His Excellency President E.D Mnangagwa in mourning the untimely demise of Cde Dumiso Dabengwa in Nairobi, Kenya, yesterday.
His shock departure has been received with bewilderment and dismay by the generality of our people across the country.
The elephant has fallen. A giant had departed without ceremony leaving many hearts lacerated. His illustrious to the liberation of Zimbabwe is incontestable, so is his post-independence conbtribution.
He was a remarkable freedom fighter. A man of impeccable liberation war credentials. A leader of immense charisma, courage, dedication and enviable humility.
He embraced even those who hated him. Political difference of opinion at any stage must never translate into enmity and be a weapon used to extinguish one's history.
Cde Dabengwa always led from the front. He knew no tribe, region or race. He only knew humility.
A man of Cde Dabengwa's attributes can never die, but can only depart for higher responsibilities.
He has left a legacy of selfless service to the people of Zimbabwe and to the cause of Pan-Africanism.
May his soul anchor and rest in eternal peace.
