Statement by the First Lady of the Republic of Zimbabwe Dr Auxillia Mnangagwa on the passing of Mrs Lillian Mujuru and her five children
I HAVE received with deep sorrow and a heavy heart the tragic news of the passing of Mrs Lilian Mujuru and her five beloved children, Nokutenda, Makanaka, Ronald Junior, Rufaro Shalom and little Kayden, who lost their lives in a fatal road traffic accident along Masvingo Road near Mvuma.
This is a painful loss beyond words, a heartbreaking tragedy that has robbed one family of six precious lives in a single moment.
As a mother, grandmother, I am deeply moved by the sorrow that has befallen the Mujuru family, and I extend my sincere condolences to Mr Ronald Mujuru, the bereaved husband and father, as well as to the extended family, friends and the church community.
I am imagining the anguish and emptiness that this tragedy has left behind.
May the Almighty God grant Mr Mujuru strength and comfort during this unimaginably difficult time, and may the nation stand with him in prayer, compassion and solidarity.
I also urge all road users to exercise the utmost caution and responsibility on our roads so that we may prevent such devastating tragedies that continue to claim innocent lives and leave families shattered. May the souls of departed rest in eternal peace.
