HARARE (Reuters) - Retired correspondent Cris Chinaka worked for Reuters in Harare from 1990 to 2015. Before that he reported on Zimbabwe for the ZIANA news agency and MOTO, a weekly newspaper.

The country's former leader, Robert Mugage, died on Friday aged 95. On Nov. 24, 2017, Reuters published this report in which Chinaka reflected on a third of a century of covering “Uncle Bob”.
