‘Grace , reportedly briefly collapsed in Dubai, while her son was in trouble with police over a drug related incident, hence Mugabe’s dash from Sadc’

First Lady, Grace Mugabe, reportedly fell down and become briefly unconscious in Dubai last Tuesday, as a result of recurring illness while visiting her son, Robert Junior, who studies there, Spotlight Zimbabwe reported.

The shock revelation, comes contrary to worldwide circulating reports last week, that President Robert Mugabe was the one on his deathbed in the Far East, bringing back to the fore the first lady’s own deteriorating health situation after she was diagnosed with colon cancer, a few years ago.

According to media sources in Dubai, Grace was allegedly admitted overnight at a top notch medical facility, believed to be Al Zahra Private Hospital, which caters for high society patients, thus explaining Mugabe’s abrupt cancellation of a Southern African Development Community (SADC) summit in Mbabane, Swaziland, on Monday last week.

“The first family from Zimbabwe enjoy a press blackout in Dubai and Singapore, that it why media outlets here never report about their activities when they are in the country,” said a health correspondent with a private daily newspaper in Abu Dhabi.

“We gather that your first lady (Grace) fell ill and collapsed last Tuesday. It was not serious, but it certainly caused a lot of panic. This might have prompted Robert Mugabe to leave an important summit, so as to attend to his wife. There are also unconfirmed reports that their son, Robert Mugabe Junior, had also fallen in trouble with the local police, who reportedly took him in for questioning with a drug related incident.” Source – Spotlight Zimbabwe
