Chiwenga's Sister Buried

The late sister to Vice President Constantino Chiwenga, Mrs Margaret Machekabuwe was buried at Machekabuwe Farm yesterday. Chiwenga’s sister received a State-assisted funeral.

Speaking at the burial, Chiwenga described his late sister, who was a war collaborator, as a fearless and principled woman. Said Chiwenga:

We grew up the three of us at our homestead after a lot of things had happened. Our father had been poisoned and stayed in hospital for a long time and our homestead was burnt and we were left with very few belongings. It was a difficult time. We stayed the three of us with our grandmother who drank beer a lot and would leave us alone most times with very little to eat. We would agree with my elder sister to steal money that was kept at home, but she (Margaret) would admonish us from stealing the money that is how honest and principled she was.
