By A Correspondent | The late Chipo Ziki, Young Women For Economic Development (YW4ED) Hurungwe District Coordinator and Hurungwe Central Constituency Coordinator, will be laid to rest on Friday, 13 November 2026, at Karoi Cemetery.

The funeral arrangements were announced on Thursday by ZANU PF online activist Mairosi Watungwa, who provided an update on the burial programme.

According to Watungwa, a send-off chapel service will be held at Nyaradzo Funeral Parlour along Herbert Chitepo Avenue in Harare on Thursday, 12 November, between 2pm and 2:30pm before the body is transported to Karoi.

“CDE CHIPO ZIKI FUNERAL UPDATE,” Watungwa announced.
She said the late Chipo’s body would lie in state at the family residence at 635 Flamboyant Park in Karoi ahead of Friday’s burial at Karoi Cemetery.

Chipo, the daughter of Hurungwe Central legislator and ZANU PF Hurungwe District Coordinating Committee chairman Hon Richard Ziki, died on Tuesday morning in Harare while giving birth following an operation.

Her newborn baby boy survived the delivery but remains hospitalised, with the family and well-wishers hoping for his recovery.

“We continue to lift her baby in prayer, trusting God to preserve his life and to comfort the Ziki family, relatives, Cdes and friends during this deeply painful time,” Watungwa said.
