ZANU PF spokesperson Cde Simon Khaya-Moyo has died.
He was 76.
The veteran nationalist died this afternoon at Mater Dei Hospital in Bulawayo.
He joined the nationalist movement in 1968 as a member of the Zimbabwe African People’s Union (ZAPU).
Cde Khaya-Moyo left the country for Zambia that year where he enrolled at University of Zambia the following year and graduated with a diploma in Social Sciences after senior officials of ZAPU agreed to send him to school.
He received military training in Russia and Cuba and attended the Malt, Geneva and Lancaster Conferences together with the late Joshua Nkomo which resulted in the Lancaster House Agreement.
After Zimbabwe’s Independence in 1980, Cde Khaya-Moyo became an assistant secretary in the Ministry of Home Affairs before being appointed to be an undersecretary in the Ministry of Justice in 1983.
He was elected a member of Zanu PF’s Central Committee in 1989.
