MASVINGO – The Reformed Church University (RCU) Acting Vice Chancellor, Prof Marriotte Jacob Ngwaru has died.
He was 65.
RCU Information and Publicity Officer, Rumbidzai Manyame confirmed the death to The Mirror.
“RCU, Ngwaru family and the whole nation has been robbed of a pillar. He will be remembered as a visionary and progressive leader who transformed the RCU in the shortest space of time he was with the University,” said Manyame.
