President Mnangagwa said doctors did all they could to save his grandson, Yasha but it was not to be.
“On Friday night when our son visited the hospital, we
heard that when the now late grandson was taking his food it went through the
wrong pipe, so they rushed him to hospital. I want to thank the doctors because
they did their utmost best. When I visited with (First Lady) Amai, that night,
we could feel that the doctors, young doctors, they impressed us, competent,
very committed, we would like to thank them as the Mnangagwa family.
“By next morning, they told us that pneumonia had then
developed as they were busy trying to pump out the food that had entered the
wrong pipe.
“We were satisfied with the services they provided to our
grandson, he was stable and that same night we went back to sleep just after
midnight. The next morning on Sunday, we went back to the hospital with the
First Lady and we saw that he was critical but stable, we spent some time
there.
“When we were satisfied that he was stable and they were
doing their best, I left for Kwekwe but Mhamha (First Lady) said she wanted to
remain at the hospital. She called around 11 O’clock (Sunday) saying Daddy
mwana ashaya, that is what happened, then I had to come back,” the President was quoted by The Herald as saying.
Yasha is expected to be laid to rest in Bikita
