Presidential spokesperson George Charamba confirmed to the Daily News that Vice President Constantino Chiwenga returned back at work last week on Thursday, a day after he was rushed to hospital, after falling at Zanu PF headquarters, forcing him to cancel his politburo attendance.
Chiwenga was released from a hospital with minor injuries and bruises. Said Charamba:
Worry? Never! He was back at work by Thursday. You would have seen him with His Excellency at the Lavrov meeting. You may know he (Chiwenga) is driving investment projects in the presidency. The ex-rays showed no serious injury, only bruised tissue on his arm which needed a little application of balm.
Chiwenga joins former president Robert Mugabe and former Police boss Augustine Chihuri on the list of high profile political figures who have suffered mishaps in public.
