The longest serving President of the Zimbabwe, Robert Gabriel Mugabe has died.
The 93 year old was on Saturday discharged but he suddenly fell ill while attending Ghana’s independence day on Monday which took his life on arrival to hospital in Singapore.
An autopsy will fully confirm the cause of death, but the former President had been battling prostate cancer.
State officials have not yet released the name of his immediate heir but from the look of things his wife could probably assume his position temporary before proper arrangements are made.
He left behind four children,namely; Bona Mugabe, Robert Peter Mugabe Jr., Chatunga Bellarmine Mugabe, Michael Nhamodzenyika Mugabe and surviving spouse,Grace Mugabe.
Mugabe was Zimbabwean revolutionary and politician who governed the Republic of Zimbabwe as its President since 1987, having previously governed as its Prime Minister from 1980 to 1987. Ideologically an African nationalist and socialist, he has led the Zimbabwe African National Union – Patriotic Front (ZANU–PF) party since 1975
