Ex-Zimbabwean Leader, Robert Mugabe Dies At 95

The immediate past president of Zimbabwe who led the country from 1980 to 2017, has died at 95.

It was gathered that his successor, Emmerson Mnangagwa announced through a tweet on Friday.

He tweeted, “It is with the utmost sadness that I announce the passing on of Zimbabwe’s founding father and former President… Robert Mugabe.

“Mugabe was an icon of liberation, a pan-Africanist who dedicated his life to the emancipation and empowerment of his people. His contribution to the history of our nation and continent will never be forgotten.”

Mugabe had been battling ill health, and his humiliating fall from office in November 2017, his stamina seeped away rapidly. He was hospitalised in Singapore for months for an undisclosed ailment, Mnangagwa had confirmed earlier this year.
