On Friday night when our son visited the hospital, we heard that when the now late grandson was taking his food it went through the wrong pipe, so they rushed him to hospital.

I want to thank the doctors because they did their utmost best. When I visited with the First Lady, that night, we could feel that the doctors, young doctors, they impressed us, competent, very committed, we would like to thank them as the Mnangagwa family.

By next morning, they told us that pneumonia had then developed as they were busy trying to pump out the food that had entered the wrong pipe.

We were satisfied with the services they provided to our grandson; he was stable and that same night we went back to sleep just after midnight.

The next morning on Sunday, we went back to the hospital with the First Lady and we saw that he was critical but stable, we spent some time there.

When we were satisfied that he was stable and they were doing their best, I left for Kwekwe but the First Lady said she wanted to remain at the hospital.

She called around 11 O’clock (Sunday) saying Daddy mwana ashaya, that is what happened, then I had to come back.

The late five-year-old Yasha was Sean Mnangagwa’s son.

He died on Sunday 23 October 2022 and was laid to rest this Tuesday in Bikita next to his forefather Mafidi.
