Vice President Kembo Mohadi and Minister of Environment,
Water and Climate Cde Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri are recovering well after the
June 23 blast at the ruling party’s rally at White City Stadium in Bulawayo.
President Emmerson Mnangagwa yesterday told thousands of
party supporters gathered for a rally at Chipadze Stadium in Bindura that he
had spoken to both VP Mohadi and Cde Muchinguri-Kashiri, with the latter
assuring him that she was on the way to recovery.
While VP Mohadi is also recovering, he has also lost his
brother.
“Right now, like you all know, Vice President Mohadi was
injured in the incident that occurred in Bulawayo,” said the President.
“He is in South Africa and I spoke to him, but we are sorry
that his brother passed (away) and when I spoke to him, I also paid my
condolences.”
“‘Cde Oppah (Muchinguri), our minister, is in South Africa.
I spoke to her this morning (yesterday) and she informed me that she is well
and recovering.
“She had been told that she would be discharged, but when
the doctors came, she was informed she must remain in hospital for a while.”
The assassination attempt on President Mnangagwa claimed
two lives and left 47 others injured.
Among the injured party members was VP Chiwenga’s wife,
Mary; the ruling party’s national political commissar, Dr Engelbert Rugeje, and
Zanu-PF Women’s League secretary Mabel Chinomona. Sunday Mail
