Tsvangirai burial moved to Tuesday

The burial of Movement for Democratic Change leader Morgan Tsvangirai has been moved from Monday to Tuesday according to MDC secretary-general Douglas Mwonzora.
 
“For the avoidance of doubt the burial of President Tsvangirai is taking place on Tuesday in Humanikwa Village in Buhera. This is now final. We regret the inconvenience caused by any earlier contrary announcements,” Mwonzora said.
 
Tsvangirai died in a Johannesburg hospital on Wednesday evening and his body is expected in the country today.
 
The government said it would accord him a state funeral.
