"Her daughter, Chengeto, is expected to arrive on Monday morning from her United States base, so the service has been slated for 8:30am," Musasiwa said.
Musasiwa added: "After the service, the body is expected to pass through her family home, 19 Campbeltown Road, Bluff Hill in Harare, for about an hour before proceeding to Chakowa."
