Moyana was the first black central bank chief between 1983
and 1993 and reports suggested his health has been poor of late, having been in
and out of hospital in recent times.
“The sudden departure of Zimbabwe’s illustrious governor,
the first black man to put his signature on our currency and stood guard over
its value to his last day in office (1993) is a serious blow to our pool of
indomitable expertise and experience,” said one of Moyana’s successors, Gideon
Gono, who presided over the central bank from 2004 to 2014.
“Although each governor faces a different set of challenges
during his/her tenure depending on the prevailing environment, Dr Moyana
achieved several firsts in office and left a record of multiple achievements
difficulty to emulate.” Newsday
