Vice President Constantino Chiwenga’s chartered plane is a specialised flying hospital, according to a ZimLive report.
The aircraft which Chiwenga chartered reportedly cost US$500 000 to India and back to Zimbabwe. The plane is a Boeing 737-700 owned by Royal Jets of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
The plane has an Intensive Care Unit which can take up to three ICU patients, and also has a specialised health team on board.
Among other services that it offers, Royal Jet says on its website:
Our medical flight team includes experts in the fields of cardiology, paediatrics, neonatal and intensive care, and is supported by the most advanced medical technology. The dedicated Medevac fleet includes a fully customisable Boeing Business Jets, capable of reaching even the most distant destinations.
Had it been the Zimbabwe economy was kept well intact since 1980 to make Zimbabwe an advanced economy by now, the said 500k / and other related expenses, could be a huge investment in the economy and a considerable positive impulse in the lives of the poverty stricken majority, many professions, the healthy delivery sector, education, defense and security sector and the industry in particular. Tragically, the power development model adopted by revolutionaries [the us only and nobody else doctrine] has led to a betrayal of the revolution with many questions as to its significance….I am convinced revolutionaries owe the Zimbabweans answers as why this tragic life and hardships for an independent people. This crippling power model should be transformed into a progressive sociodemocratic development model which takes all on board and guarantees the prosperous, peaceful Zimbabwe all people wish for us and our children in the depths of our heart before our days are numbered. Kindly, we all equally owe our wonderful life to God and wish every unwell creation of God a fast recovery in Jesus Mighty Name.
