Her gallantry catapulted her to a political instructor at two military bases. Aged 21, she was a camo commander at Chimoio in Mozambique, engaging in battle, even when she was heavily pregnant.
At Zimbabwe’s independence in 1980, Mujuru became the youngest cabinet minister, assuming the sports, youth and recreation portfolio. In between her ministerial duties, she attended secondary school. Years later, she earned a doctorate.
After the controversial 2008 elections, won by Robert Mugabe, Mujuru was appointed Vice President, becoming the only woman to attain such a milestone.
In 214, she bequeathed her VP post, after being fired by Robert Mugabe, accusing her of being power hungry, seeking to replace the late dictator.

“I’m not into politics anymore,” she disclosed to journalists after meeting the first lady. She will dedicate her time to family and farming.
“Politics comes and goes. Our problems as women are the same. What only differs is the time of occurrence. All women should unite. Do not hate anyone even at church. You should not have a permanent enemy even in politics.”
“What made me happy is that we spoke about women’s issues, considering that we are in the women’s month, and did not discuss positions or politics,” she told the media.
