Leo Mugabe, the spokesperson of the family of the late founding leader of Zimbabwe, Robert Gabriel Mugabe, has dismissed as fake reports suggesting that Mugabe’s body was flown to Singapore for safekeeping.
Speaking to Nehanda Radio, Leo said that the body lies in state at the Blue Roof, the mansion where Mugabe family resides. He said:
There have been messages circulating on social media about the remains of the former leader being flown back to Singapore; they are false.
We all woke up to these messages on WhatsApp, but they are just rumours and nothing of that nature is happening.I am not sure about the One Commando thing. All we know is the body will be kept safely.
Mugabe’s remains are yet to be buried as a mausoleum in which he is to be laid to rest is yet to be completed.
The Chinese company that was contracted to construct the unique and special grave revealed earlier that the mausoleum, depending on availability of resources, would take about three months to be completed.
This comes when there are reports suggesting that the body of the former veteran leader was embalmed to last for five years. Since its arrival from Singapore where he died, it has never been to any funeral parlour.

Huh …. must be rotten
Juju people. Hey these people no wonder why Mugabe was hero worshiped it was because of his dangerous juju. How can you keep a corpse in your house. This is abomination in our society.
Wasting millions for the remains when the economy is bleeding/ what happened to mandella
Why isn’t this murderer lying in Hell? (actually the Mugabe family have already buried him in Zvimba, using the Singapore coffin. What is in the Zim coffin is some building blocks to give it some weight, and it is tightly screwed down) Mugabe will not be buried at Heroes Acre.
You idiots,stop wasting money on the dead bony, while the economy is bleeding.It’s of no use to the real stature of the nation,u better u
better use that money on some of the pressing issues on the wellbeing of the living nation,come on
I agree this is where leaders say people are suffering bury him anywhere if you like. What’s wrong with our standard hero graves where Josiah tongogara lies
The primitive. Now you know why Africans remain poor and backward. Kaharahwa karamba kufa even kafa kare.
Chatunga, endesa sadza kuna baba
This is terrible 1 million usd. Can’t pay Doctors but a a dead body is looked after so well. Zimbabweans suffer and this shows they really don’t care and they will do whatever they please.
