President Emmerson Mnangagwa says the late nationalist and former Vice President, Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo, played a critical role in liberating Zimbabwe from white colonial rule.
In a message posted on Twitter, Mnangagwa said, “… 22 years ago today, Zimbabwe lost a great man. Dr Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo is a hero of the liberation struggle, a man of the people, and a visionary who built a better Zimbabwe.”
