Robert Mugabe is to be buried this week but the location is unclear amid an apparent dispute between relatives and the government.

Mrs Mugabe gained the nickname"Gucci Grace" because of her lavish lifestyle. She once reportedly spent $75,000 during a shopping spree in Paris, despite Zimbabwe's on-going economic crisis while her husband was in office.

The government has said Mr Mugabe would be buried at the Heroes' Acre state monument, a burial place reserved for those at the top of the ZANU-PF party, which Mr Mugabe used to lead. Mr Mugabe's nephew, Leo Mugabe, said, however, the relationship between the government and Mugabe family was good. At the time, Mr Mugabe had said his uncle had died"a very bitter man". Mr Mnangagwa and army generals put Mr Mugabe under house arrest and forced him to resign in 2017, despite having previously been his allies.
