#TodayInHistory, we recall the passing of Morgan Tsvangirai, a prominent Zimbabwean politician and opposition leader. He died on February 14, 2018, after a long battle with colorectal cancer. Tsvangirai was a key figure in Zimbabwe’s political landscape, serving as the Prime Minister of Zimbabwe from 2009 to 2013.
Morgan Tsvangirai’s death was a significant blow to the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC), the party he led. The party was already facing internal conflicts and power struggles, which intensified after Tsvangirai’s passing. His legacy continues to be felt in Zimbabwean politics, and his memory remains an important part of the country’s history.
Tsvangirai’s life was marked by his commitment to democracy and human rights. He received international recognition for his work, including an honorary degree from Pai Chai University in South Korea. As we remember Morgan Tsvangirai today, we honor his contributions to Zimbabwe’s struggle for freedom and democracy.
