His remains were found trapped within the gorge and recovered after a five-day operation by rescuers who included members of the Air Force of Zimbabwe and the Zimbabwe National Parks and Wildlife Authority rangers.

The Deputy Minister of Health and Child Care, John Mangwiro, was among those who attended Dikinya’s burial ceremony.

The late fitness instructor’s family thanked the Government for retrieving his remains. His mother, Eileen Dikinya, said it was disheartening to lose her son in such an unfortunate manner. She said:

> It is painful, very painful to lose him this way. But we thank the efforts of those who recovered his remains. This afforded us the chance to give him a decent burial.
