Foreign Affairs and International Trade Minister Dr Sibusiso Moyo, Transport and Infrastructure Development Minister Dr Joel Biggie Matiza and former Zimbabwe Prison Service Commissioner-General Paradzai Zimondi – who all succumbed to Covid-19- related complications last week – were buried at the National Heroes Acre on Wednesday.
Presiding over the burials, Acting President Dr Constantino Chiwenga said the death of the three national heroes was a huge loss to the country.
“On behalf of His Excellency, President Emmerson Mnangagwa, I wish to express my pain and sincere condolences to each of the bereaved families,” he said.
“May I say to them, your great losses are our losses too. For your great sons were no longer yours alone but ours together.
“The Covid-19 pandemic has not spared the Republic of Zimbabwe as the country has witnessed in the past three or so weeks a surge in the new Covid-19 variant.”
