HARARE: Zimbabwe's former president Robert Mugabe has died, Zimbabwe President Emmerson Mnangagwa said on Friday (Sep 6).
"It is with the utmost sadness that I announce the passing on of Zimbabwe's founding father and former President, Cde Robert Mugabe," tweeted the president.
Mugabe "was an icon of liberation, a pan-Africanist who dedicated his life to the emancipation and empowerment of his people" he said.
The 95-year-old had received medical care in a Singapore hospital for an undisclosed ailment earlier this year.
Mnangagwa confirmed last month that Mugabe had been hospitalised in Singapore since May.

At the time, Mnangagwa said the former leader was responding well to treatment.
It was announced in November last year that Mugabe was unable to walk because of ill health and old age.
Mnangagwa took over in November 2017 with the backing of the military, ending Mugabe's 37-year rule. He went on to be elected in disputed elections in July last year.

Anyone ever heard of the Ariel School encounter? I never had until my wife had a dream in which some entity told her to look this up. I really don't think these kids are lying! I highly recommend looking up the follow up videos with them as adults as well.
