NCA statement of the untimely death of General Solomon Mujuru
The National Constitutional Assembly (NCA) has learned with shock and sadness about the untimely death of Retired General Solomon Mujuru. Reports from The Herald (online edition) say that General Mujuru was burnt to death at his Beatrice Farm early morning.
Gen Mujuru was a true servant of the people, who served with diligence as commander of the liberation forces during the liberation struggle and was very loyal to the revolutionary cause of our people.
The demise of General Mujuru is a great loss to the entire nation. During his time as the leader of the revolutionary forces he never failed to confront’ challenges affecting the suppressed black populace.
Hence as the NCA we call for an independent and thorough investigation surrounding the suspicious death of General Mujuru.
As the NCA we extend our condolences and deepest sympathy to his family on this tragic loss. We are in mourning with them at this darkest hour that has befallen them.
We dip our banner in honour of this great revolutionary and call on all Zimbabweans from all walks of life to give him a well deserved send off.
May his Soul Rest in Peace.
Lovemore Madhuku
National Chairperson
National Constitutional Assembly
