Zambian leader Edgar Lungu has shared a photo of him and the late former President Mugabe on his Facebook stories. He captioned it with the following message:
I am saddened at the passing of a Pan-Africanist, Zimbabwe’s founding father and former President, Cde Robert Mugabe. He will be remembered for his fight for Africa’s liberation and standing up to fearlessly defend a continent he loved the most. His place in the annals of Africa’s political history is well assured.
Zambia mourns with the people of Zimbabwe.
Go well, Son of Africa.
Go well, Son of the Soil.#RIPRobertMugabe
Cde Mugabe died on Friday 06 September 2019 in Singapore where he was being treated.
