By A Correspondent- Former Zimbabwe National Army Chief of Staff Major General Trust Mugoba has died.

Mugoba died at a local private hospital in Harare today.

He had been admitted at the health institution for close to a week due to an undisclosed ailment.

“He passed away this morning.”

Mugoba left his post in March 2017 after he was seconded to a post at the African Union where he became the Chief of Staff of the continent’s Stand By Force.

He returned home in August this year from Ethiopia where he was based due to ill health.
