Zimbabwe Honors Late Chief Chivi as Liberation War Hero.
President Mnangagwa has named Chief Chivi, a hero of Zimbabwe's fight for freedom. The chief, who was born Tavagwisa Magura, died last week at the age of 106.
The chief's burial took place Sunday in Maregere Village. Leaders from the government and the Zanu PF party came to say goodbye. Minister Ezra Chadzamira spoke about how much Chief Chivi meant to their province and country.
"Zimbabwe is free today because of people like Chief Chivi," Chadzamira said. The minister praised President Mnangagwa for giving the chief this special honor.
Chief Chivi helped Zimbabwe gain its freedom. He worked as a driver and supporter during the war. He backed many plans to help his local area grow and improve.
The ruling party leader in Masvingo, Mr. Mavhenyengwa, remembered Chief Chivi as someone who always stood by their cause. He wants to keep working toward Chief Chivi's dream of making Zimbabwe stronger by 2030.
Born in 1919, Chief Chivi showed his deep love for freedom. In 1976, he left his regular job to help in the war full-time. He worked hard to make Zimbabwe free from British rule.
The local leaders promised to keep helping the people of Chivi grow stronger and richer. They want to make Chief Chivi's hopes for a better Zimbabwe come true.
