Mnangagwa Calls For Return Of Chimurenga Heroes' Remains From Britain

President Emmerson Mnangagwa has urged the British government to return the remains of Chimurenga war heroes for dignified interment.

Among those whose remains are sought are prominent figures from the First Chimurenga, including Mbuya Nehanda, Sekuru Kaguvi, and other leaders of uprisings against colonial rule, such as Chief Makoni Chingaira, Chief Mapondera, and Chief Chinengundu Mashayamombe. The remains are believed to have been taken to Britain as war trophies and are currently used for research.

In 2022, both London’s Natural History Museum and Cambridge University expressed their willingness to cooperate with Zimbabwe in repatriating these human remains.

During his remarks at the funeral of the late hero Jaison William Chezhira Chakaipa Chirinda on Monday, Mnangagwa said the spirits of these late 19th-century anti-colonial heroes will not find peace until their remains are returned and properly buried. Said Mnangagwa:

We remind the British Government and people that the spirits of our heroes will not rest until their remains are repatriated and interred in a dignified manner.

Going forward, we urge the British Government to return the remains of our people to Zimbabwe.

Last week Mnangagwa demanded an apology from the British Government for a century of colonial rule that dispossessed indigenous people of their land and subjected them to various forms of abuse.

He also demanded reparations and restitution for the exploitation of Zimbabwe during the colonial period, which lasted from 1890 to 1980.

Where must ED go? He has no time to see all these empty comments you make on Pindula. Talk to him in the face instead; if you really want him to go.

yet another reason to substantiate the fact that Smith was better than this regime of the day. Smith akaponda akaisa mabhonzo kuUK. zanu ikakubata straight muAcid. we demand proper burial for Dzamara, Rashiwe and many others who just disappeared during Gukurahumbi before we entertain such spurious ideas.

Priorities Priorities Priorities, yes it is important to have their remains back but what of Gukurahundi victims huh, people still want answers and the Government instead of fully resolving that first because it is in our own backyard, it is instead focused on other less important things. They need to do things by order of importance, I have never heard the normal people in Zimbabwe constantly crying about wanting bones or remains back but I hear people constantly complaining of the poor infrastructure, currency instability, housing shortages, water and electricity shortages, insecure food supply, high unemployment, corruption, human rights violations, poor public transport which is leading to a high death toll on the roads, the list is endless, these issues are much more important to people first than recovering bones. So they should focus on that first and then we can talk about the other things because those bones being returned will not solve the many problems we face.
