Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>A 66-year-old war veteran collapsed and died while awaiting her turn to be vetted at Elangeni Training Institute in Bulawayo on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The vetting process is also targeting non-combatant cadres, ex-political prisoners, detainees, restrictees and war collaborators in recognition of their contribution to the country\u2019s liberation struggle.<\/p>\n

Bulawayo police spokesperson Inspector Abednico Ncube confirmed the sudden death Monday and identified the deceased as Nomathani Moyo.<\/p>\n

I can confirm that Moyo collapsed and died while she was in the queue during a vetting exercise at Elangeni Training Institute.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, ex-ZIPRA fighters have complained that the time set for the vetting exercise was too short.<\/p>\n

This came out during a ZIPRA Veterans Association vetting exercise held in Bulawayo last Friday.<\/p>\n

During the meeting, war veterans expressed fears that they could miss the registration deadline.<\/p>\n

The second phase of the 12-day vetting exercise began on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Veterans of the Liberation Struggle Economic Empowerment Programmes and Vetting Exercise was launched last year in June by President Emmerson Mnangagwa.<\/p>\n

Under the second phase of the programme, applicants are supposed to report for vetting at various centres across the country\u2019s 10 provinces where teams are deployed to ascertain their credentials.<\/p>\n

Defence and War Veterans Affairs minister Oppah Muchinguri recently announced that:<\/p>\n

i). war collaborators would be vetted from March 20 to 31,<\/p>\n

ii). war veterans from March 20 to 31,<\/p>\n

iii). non-combatant cadres from March 20 to 26,<\/p>\n

iv). ex-political prisoners, and detainees and restrictees from March 20 to 26.<\/p>\n
