Unveiled in 2016, the monument features statutes of four struggle stalwarts: Lillian Ngoyi; Sophie de Bruyn; Helen Joseph and Rahima Moosa.Two other multi-million-rand heritage facilities in the province, the Boipatong Monument and the Kagiso Memorial and Recreation Centre remain partially operational.
“The department is committed to opening the facility, but this is subject to sourcing and approval for the additional requested budget to complete all works and the department is in talks with Gauteng Treasury regarding the matter, since we are already in the budget adjustment window period,” says Ntlokwana.
The president has lamented the uneven private support for heritage sites, saying these sites present opportunities to stimulate local economies as well as assist in nation-building and reconciliation.
