A 10-year-old Grade Six pupil at Dzivaresekwa Barracks 2 Presidential Guard Primary School, Ashley Mhanji (pictured above), who was battling cancer and receiving help from Musha Mukadzi Zimbabwe Armed Forces Foundation, has died.
Ashley was one of the beneficiaries of the charity organisation whose national chairperson is Mrs Mary Chiwenga, wife to Zimbabwe Defence Forces Commander General Constantine Chiwenga.
Mrs Chiwenga described the death as sad considering that Ashley was a promising child in her education.
“She lived a humble life,” she said. “Ashley was not that person who would ask for something that is out of this world, but would request simple things.
“I am touched and pained by the death of Ashley. It came when we had set up a cancer facility at Trauma Centre.”
Mrs Chiwenga said burial arrangements would be announced in due course.
