4 hrs ago | Views
A Zimbabwean woman based in the United Kingdom, Moreblessing Mundoza, has launched a heartfelt public appeal for financial assistance to repatriate the body of her late husband, Wellington "Pablo" Nyakabau, who died suddenly from a brain haemorrhage.
Nyakabau, who had recently joined Mundoza in Leicester to start a new life in the UK, collapsed and died after suffering a severe brain haemorrhage while returning from the gym.
Devastated by the loss, Mundoza is now seeking donations through a GoFundMe campaign to transport his body back to Zimbabwe so he can be buried among his family and ancestral roots.
In an emotional message accompanying the fundraising page, Mundoza shared the couple's journey and the devastating turn of events.
"My name is Moreblessing, and I recently moved to the UK under a Certificate of Sponsorship (COS), full of hope for a new beginning. Shortly after settling in Leicester, my beloved husband, Wellington ‘Pablo' Nyakabau, joined me. We were ready to build our new life together," she wrote.
"But in an unimaginable twist of fate, Pablo suffered a devastating brain haemorrhage on his way from the gym and passed away.
"I am now facing the heartbreaking task of taking my husband back home to Zimbabwe, to lay him to rest among his family, his ancestors, his roots. Sadly, I do not have the financial means to do this on my own."
She appealed to the public for support, saying no donation was too small.
"Your generosity will bring peace to Pablo's memory and give our family the chance to say goodbye with dignity," she said. "Thank you for taking the time to read our story - and for standing with us during this painful time."
The appeal has begun gaining traction on social media, with many Zimbabweans and members of the diaspora community expressing their sympathy and solidarity with the grieving widow.
To support the campaign, donations can be made via the GoFundMe platform under the title "Help Repatriate Pablo to Zimbabwe."
