Liberation war stalwart, Colonel (Retired) Tshinga Dube, who died on Thursday evening, has been declared a national hero in recognition of his heroic contributions to the independence of Zimbabwe.
In his condolence message to the Dube family yesterday, President Mnangagwa said the status was befitting for a cadre of Cde Dube’s stature.
“In recognition of his outstanding role in struggles for the Independence of Zimbabwe and that of several nations in our sub-region, and for the sterling work he diligently executed in the service of his people both before and after Independence, the ruling ZANU PF Politburo has seen it fit and proper to declare Cde Tshinga Dube a national hero so he is properly honoured and remembered, and so he is appropriately rested alongside his luminary peers.
