Robert Mugabe was stripped of the knighthood that was bestowed on him in 1994 for refusing to accept colonial rule. Sanctions were placed on Zimbabwe causing extreme poverty and hyperinflation.
The official burial service takes place today. He will be buried in the national heroes monument in Harare, Zimbabwe.
