Zimbabwe's First Lady Grace Mugabe turned 51 on the 23rd of July 2016 and her supporters have sung her praises citing her work with her Mazowe Orphanage and her other projects.
Businesswoman and politician Mrs Letina Undenge says Grace Mugabe has been a pillar of strength and an inspiration for women as an astute business person.
Legislator for Epworth Zalera Makari says the Mother of the Nation has taught many that it is not enough to just talk, but all Zimbabweans must work.
"Leading by example as she set up her Alpha and Omega Dairy business which has directly impacted on ZIM ASSET and the national economy in the process getting her business awards of excellence, the First Lady is an example to emulate," said Makari.
Zimbabwe's state media published a 12-page supplement in her honour.
The supplement carries adverts from struggling state-run firms, which had been asked to pay for advertising despite the country's crippling economic crisis.
For the second year in a row, the first lady is being given near-presidential treatment by Zimbabwe's state media.
Firms like the loss-making Air Zimbabwe have published full colour adverts in the Herald's birthday supplement.
The ministry of defence calls her a pillar of strength to her husband, who is 92.
It's not been confirmed exactly where the first lady is today but reports are that she and her children are in Singapore.
