Mugabe Won't Be Buried Until 30 Days Time (see Why) by AgencyReport: 12:51am On Sep 15, 2019
Ex-Zimbabwean President, Mugabe's Burial Delayed For One Month

The final burial of late Zimbabwean president, Robert Gabriel Mugabe, will be delayed for at least 30 days, Igbere TV has learnt.

According to Mirror UK, Mugabe’s burial will be delayed because the family and the Zimbabwean government have finally settled for a final resting place for the former dictator.

Igbere TV had reported that the Zimbabwean government was negotiating with the Mugabe family on where and when the late former leader would be laid to rest.

According to AFP, the government had planned to bury Mugabe in the National Heroes Acre monument next to other Zimbabwean national heroes, but Grace Mugabe, his widow, had wanted a private burial instead.

With the new development, Igbere TV learned that the Zimbabwean government will now construct a new mausoleum for Mugabe over the next 30 days in the Heroes monument.

Mugabe actually oversaw the monument's construction. Heroes Acre was built as a special burying place for top officials of the ruling party who helped to end white-minority rule. It sits at the top of a hill, where there is a large sculpture of guerrilla fighters.

According to the latest arrangement, Mugabe will now be buried at the spot originally reserved for him next to his first wife, Sally. His special mausoleum will also be elevated above all the other graves.

The Mugabe family’s decision on Heroes’ Acre as the burial site for the ex-leader came after consultations with influential traditional chiefs, reports Aljazeera.

Speaking on Saturday during the state funeral, Zimbabwe's current president, Emmerson Mnangagwa, who led the plot to oust his former boss (Mugabe) in 2017, said building the mausoleum would delay the burial of his predecessor.

Mugabe, who ruled Zimbabwe for 37 years from independence until he was ousted by the army in November 2017, died last week in a Singapore hospital at the age of 95, reports Igbere TV.
