New reports says that former President of Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe died from cancer after a chemotherapy treatment which was no longer effective was stopped at a Singaporean hospital he was admitted in.
A state-owned newspaper reported that President Emmerson Mnangagwa made the disclosure while addressing party members in New York where he is attending this week’s United Nations General Assembly, but he did not disclose the type.
Mnangagwa was quoted saying by The Herald newspaper on Monday saying “Treatment had stopped, doctors had stopped treatment, chemotherapy, one, because of age and also because the cancer had spread and it was not helping anymore”.
WikiLeaks reported in 2011 that the former leader had prostate cancer which also affected other organs. The report was denied by top government officials at that time.
