The ANC OR Tambo Region extended its heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family, relatives, friends, members of the traditional leadership fraternity, and the broader Ward 19 community.
The party also conveyed its sympathies to the Jonguhlanga Branch of the ANC, wishing all those affected strength and comfort as they mourn the loss of a leader whose contribution to his community will be remembered.
