Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>ZANU PF Bulawayo Province has announced the death of party provincial commissar Ruth Shelton.<\/p>\n

Shelton succumbed to kidney failure on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

ZANU PF Bulawayo provincial secretary for information and publicity, Archie Chiponda, said:<\/p>\n

Bulawayo province has suffered a great loss of our provincial commissar Cde Ruth Shelton.<\/p>\n

In fact, ZANU PF countrywide has suffered a great loss of a dedicated and vibrant cadre.<\/p>\n

She is somebody who served at provincial level both as a youth and now in the main wing.<\/p>\n

The party both provincially and country wide will really feel this loss of a hard-working commissar. She was a good politician and good person.<\/p>\n

Cde Ruth was known for her vibrancy, honesty and ever having a smile on her face hence her nickname vatete vemsangano.<\/p>\n

No one in ZANU PF particularly in Bulawayo and probably countrywide would say they didn\u2019t know her.<\/p>\n

Mourners are gathered at 13409 Pumula South. Shelton is survived by her daughter.<\/p>\n
