Zimbabwe Prime Minister injured, wife killed in auto accident
HARARE – The wife of Zimbabwean Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai was killed and he was injured in
accident on Friday evening, officials from his MDC party said.
MDC secretary general Tendai Biti described Tsvangirai’s condition as stable but he declined to confirm the
death of his wife, Susan, or the condition of other occupants who were traveling with the Prime Minister in
his vehicle.
President Robert Mugabe, who last month formed a power-sharing government with Tsvangirai to tackle
Zimbabwe’s multi-faceted crisis, visited his long-term rival at a Harare private clinic where he is admitted.
“The Prime Minister is in a stable condition,” Biti told reporters outside the clinic where Tsvangirai was
rushed after the late afternoon crash with a truck, about 100 km away south of Harare, along the highway to
Masvingo town.
Asked about the fate of Susana and the other occupants of the vehicle, Biti said: “The doctors and relatives
will make the necessary announcements.”
But another MDC official, who spoke on condition he was not named, said Susan, who had been married to
Tsvangirai for 31 years, died on the spot when their vehicle was hit by a haulage truck that was coming from
the opposite direction and strayed onto the Prime Minister’s lane.
Tsvangirai’s vehicle, which was reportedly carrying four people including the Prime Minister, veered off the
road and rolled over about the three times on impact.
Some reports suggested the driver of the truck may have fallen asleep on the wheel causing him to lose
control of his vehicle but this could not be immediately confirmed with the police.
It was not immediately clear whether Tsvangirai did not have other cars traveling with him. He normally
travels in convoy of at least three cars.
Tsvangirai and his wife were traveling to his rural home in Buhera in the south east of Zimbabwe where he
was due to address a rally Saturday.
The couple, which married in 1978, had six children.
The motherly Susan shunned the political limelight but remained a source of great support for her husband,
standing by him through his many trials and tribulations as a rival of Mugabe.
Her death comes at a time the unity government formed by her husband and Mugabe is facing difficult
challenges, with a power struggle between the two rivals’ supporters showing potential it could get out of
control.
The continued detention of MDC treasurer Roy Bennett and the arrest on Thursday of a magistrate who
tried to grant him bail has strained relations in the new government and raised fresh doubts on whether the
administration will last.
A top ally of Tsvangirai and his pick for deputy minister of agriculture, Bennett faces charges of terrorism,
insurgency, sabotage and banditry.
He denies the charges as politically motivated. Bennett was arrested on February 13 at a small airport
outside Harare as he was leaving the country for South Africa. He was granted a US$2 000 bail last week
by a High Court judge but the state is appealing against the ruling.
The hugely popular Bennett is the most senior of several MDC members languishing in jail on charges of
banditry and plotting to kill Mugabe –charges their party says are trumped up. Tsvangirai said last week that
it would be difficult for the unity government to move forward while the activists remain in jail.
