The medical community is mourning a tragic loss. A young doctor and his wife, both healthcare professionals, died in a Christmas Day car crash in Bulawayo. Dr. Goodnow Tanaka Machadu and his wife, Sakhile, a pharmacist, were killed when their vehicle hit a tree, with images of the severe wreckage suggesting high speed. The couple leaves behind young children.

Dr. Machadu was a University of Zimbabwe-trained doctor who co-founded Lady Coletta Private Hospital in Plumtree. His work with Meds Incorporated helped transform local healthcare, starting with pandemic response and growing into a full-service hospital. He had recently discussed plans to expand the facility into a multidisciplinary center. Sakhile Machadu, also a UZ graduate, worked as a pharmacist and a life coach, with roles at Plaza Pharmacies in Harare and other Bulawayo healthcare providers.

News of their passing spread quickly online, drawing an outpouring of grief from colleagues, friends, and former classmates. Many tributes expressed profound sympathy for the couple's children, whose lives are forever changed. The exact number of children was not confirmed. The couple began dating in 2012, graduated around 2013, and married in 2016.
