“The Eastern Cape provincial government wishes to inform South Africans that the modalities of the service came as a result of broader consultations between the next of kin, Avbob and government. It is a common cause that families have the final say on the handling of the mortal remains of their loved ones in accordance with their beliefs. The final approach to this service was therefore informed by those beliefs and preferences,” says Rantjie.
