Two Zanu-PF youth members tragically lost their lives on Monday in a head-on collision while travelling to President Emmerson Mnangagwa's 83rd birthday celebrations in Zvishavane.

The victims, both female party activists, were aboard a double-cab vehicle belonging to Zanu-PF Youth League Mashonaland West Chairman Tapiwa Masenda. Masenda was not in the car at the time, and one of the deceased was his personal assistant.

National police spokesperson Commissioner Paul Nyathi confirmed the accident. "The ZRP confirms a fatal road traffic accident which occurred on September 15, 2025, at around 12:30 hours at the 100-kilometre peg along Gweru-Zvishavane Road. Two people were killed while two others were injured when a Toyota Hilux vehicle with three passengers on board was involved in a head-on collision with a bus carrying eight passengers," he said.

The bodies of the deceased were taken to Zvishavane District Hospital mortuary for post-mortem examinations, while the injured were admitted to the same hospital for treatment.
