Mujuru to attend Mbudzi burial today

Opposition Zimbabwe People First (ZimPF) leader, Joice Mujuru is today expected to attend the burial of her late top aide, Kudzai Mbudzi, in Murisi village under Chief Charumbira's area.

Mbudzi, until his death at a private hospital in Harare on Sunday, was ZimPF Masvingo provincial spokesperson.

His younger brother, Mike, said the family had lost a unifier.

ZimPF acting provincial information and publicity secretary, Jefferyson Chitando described Mbudzi as a frank and candid revolutionary.

At Independence in 1980, he joined the Zimbabwe National Army and was sent to Punjab University in Pakistan to further his education. He served as Zanu-PF Masvingo provincial spokesperson before defecting to Simba Makoni's Mavambo/Dawn/Kusile project in 2008 and defected again to ZimPF last year.
