Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa has said he occasionaly enjoyed weekend braai's at his Kwekwe farm with the late Central Intelligence (CIO) top official Zenzo Ntuliki Ncube.
Ncube died in Bulawayo last Friday and would be buried at the National Heroes' Arce on Saturday.
"He was in Gweru and during weekends he would come to my farm in Kwekwe where I stay and we would spend Saturdays and Sundays together braaing," Mnangagwa told mourners on Wednesday in Bulawayo.
According to Mnangagwa he had know the Gwanda born Ncube for more than 30 years.
"I have known him for 30 years or so and he was a very honest and committed cadre who rose to that level because of his commitment and loyalty to the party and the Government," he said.
"It is a pity that we have lost this young man. He is one of the young men who came to the war on the Zipra side when he was very young.
"I also know him because during the war and towards the end of it he had also gone to the National Security Organisation of Zipra and I was head of security the other side. So we know each other in that sense."
