He was 65.

Mr Diwa who had just retired died at his farm in Chivu last night after a short illness. His son, Anesu said he died around 8pm last night and by this morning his body was still in his bedroom waiting for health officials.

Midlands provincial Public Service commissioner, Mr Andrew Chimanyiwa said the public service was shocked by Mr Diwa’s untimely death.

“It’s a shock we have lost a dedicated cadre, he had just retired and was beginning to settle,” said Mr Chimanyiwa.

A relative who declined to be named said Mr Diwa could have died of depression after he was denied his service vehicle which he thought was part of his retirement package.

“This man died due to depression in his retirement package he was supposed to get a vehicle he had been using as a director but he was told he can’t take the car home at the last minute, imagine spending years driving top of the range Government vehicles to only wake up a pedestrian, he had no personal car so he was so frustrated,” said the relative.
