Two Air Force of Zimbabwe pilots, Flight- Lieutenant Annita Mapiye and Group Captain Tinashe Manyowa, and a technician, Flight Sergeant Chikamhi, as well as an 18-month-old baby, Jade Fenyere who was on the ground, died when the helicopter, an Agusta Bell 412 (AB 412), crashed into a house at Plot 2 of Gardner Road, Ward 16 in Goromonzi. ---------- Latest itel S24 available on Pindula: 128GB storage, 4GB RAM $119 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 Buy Online: https://www.pindula.co.zw/market/itel-s24-128gb-22-20240426142756795795/?s=wanews ---------- Speaking at the Fenyere family homestead on Saturday, Defence and War Veterans Affairs Minister Oppah Muchinguri-Kashiri encouraged the family not to lose hope following the death of their daughter. She said: > Allow me to pass my heartfelt condolences following the passing on of your child. We are with you during this very difficult time as it is not easy to lose a child as young as 1 1/2 years old. Please do not lose hope. Muchinguri-Kashiri was leading a delegation that included Commander Air Force of Zimbabwe (AFZ), Air Marshal Elson Moyo. The delegation also toured the crash site. Muchinguri-Kashiri also consoled the Manyowa and Mapiye families. She said the government will bear all the burial costs for all four bereaved families. NB: Other publications have identified one of the deceased pilots as Wing Commander Tinashe Thomas Mapiye and not as Group Captain Tinashe Manyowa. *More: Zimbabwe Voice* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
