President Mnangagwa, who is Chancellor of State universities, has today capped his wife Auxilia Mnangagwa who was on Friday conferred an Honourary Doctor of Laws (Honoris Causa) by the University of Zimbabwe during the 42nd graduation ceremony in Harare.

Mnangagwa's wife runs the Angel of Hope Foundation, which raises the standards of marginalised communities, saving women from cervical cancer, protection of children, human rights and great philanthropic works.

Mnangagwa also capped 5 062 other students who graduated with degrees in various disciplines at a colourful ceremony held at the institution's campus in Harare.

In his keynote address, Vice Chancellor, Professor Paul Mapfumo said the bulk of the graduates were female in line with Government empowerment thrust hinged on the desire to leave no one and no place behind.

There were 3 652 students who graduated with undergraduate degrees, while 1 394 were capped with postgraduate degrees with 20 students conferred with Doctor of Philosophy degrees.
