“Engineer Raza will be greatly missed by the higher and tertiary education fraternity for his immense contributions towards the innovative growth and sound management of Harare Polytechnic, where he spent half of his lifetime both as a student and member of staff,” he said.

He enrolled at the college while serving an apprenticeship as a diesel plant fitter. After that, he trained at the University of British Columbia and Laurentian University in Ontario, Canada.
