CONDOLENCE MESSAGE BY THE VICE PRESIDENT OF ZIMBABWE AND MINISTER OF HEALTH AND CHILD CARE HONOURABLE GENERAL (RETIRED) DR. C. G. D. N. CHIWENGA, FOLLOWING THE PASSING ON OF CDE KENNETH MANYONDA

It was with a deep sense of shock and grief that I learnt of the untimely passing on of Cde Kenneth Manyonda, on Wednesday, 9 November 2022. My last interactions with him had given me a deceptive impression that he was on the mend, and ready to get to his feet. Alas, that was not to be.

I knew the late Cde Manyonda as a vibrant nationalist, whose involvement in Trade Unionism and Black Consciousness movements in the 1950s and 1960s was a source of inspiration for the oppressed youths of our country. It was the boldness of Cde Manyonda and his colleagues which added depth to Nationalism in our country. He was also active during the days of the National Democratic Party, which birthed the fighting spirit of the revolutionary parties against the oppressive colonial regime up to the time of its capitulation, leading to the attainment of our independence in 1980. Post-independence, Cde Manyonda remained steadfast, focused and determined to give his best for the good of our Party, ZANU PF and beloved country, Zimbabwe. Notably, he contributed substantially to national development as Deputy Minister of Industry and Commerce as well as Governor of Manicaland Province. Cde Manyonda always exuded an unwavering desire to preserve our cultural beliefs, values and mores as a people. He was an embodiment of the Hunhu/Ubuntu spirit. The country benefited from his wisdom as he continued with national duty as a Chief in Buhera.

As we mourn Cde Manyonda, I wish to extend heartfelt condolences to the President of the Republic of Zimbabwe and Commander-in-Chief of the Zimbabwe Defence Forces, His Excellency Cde Dr. E. D. Mnangagwa, the citizen, exemplary father and great statesman, who dedicated his life to serving his country.

May his dear soul rest in eternal peace.
