National hero and Zimbabwe’s former President Cde Robert
Mugabe died of advanced prostate cancer.
The revelation
follows widespread conjecture and theories. However, impeccable sources
said that Cde Mugabe had died of advanced prostate cancer, which he failed to
recover from after a six-month stay in Singapore, where he received treatment
at Gleneagles Hospital.
Prostate cancer spreads when cancer cells break free from
the prostate and spread to other organs which might cause new tumours.
According to internet medical sources, advanced prostate
cancer is hard to cure as it often moves into the bones before spreading to
other organs including the lungs, liver or brain.
The sources revealed: “The President’s death has been
subject to speculation since he passed away, but I can authoritatively reveal
that he died from prostate cancer. The cause of death had not been known to
many people except his close family members.”
According to the sources, Cde Mugabe had been going for
month-long routine check-ups to Singapore before his physicians resolved that
he be kept under observation for much longer, from early April this year.
At the beginning of August, President Mnangagwa deployed a
delegation led by Chief Secretary in the Office of the President and Cabinet
Misheck Sibanda, Cde Mugabe’s personal physician Professor Jonathan Matenga and
Director-General in the Office of the President and Cabinet Ambassador Isaac
Moyo to check on his health, which had deteriorated.
The sources revealed that although the former leader looked
frail and wheelchair bound, in his last days, he still maintained a sharpness
of mind as he could easily recognise faces and engage in insightful
conversation. Sunday Mail
