Mashatile says that the repatriation of the remains of heroes and heroines that were buried in Zambia and Zimbabwe forms part of the Resistance and Liberation Heritage Route Project.
He delivered the keynote address at the national Heritage Day celebrations at the Meqheleng Stadium in Ficksburg in the Free State. “It is therefore important that we, as a nation, preserve the memory of those who fought for our freedom. They have dedicated and sacrificed their lives to the defence of our country, as well as the assertion of the values and principles that must be upheld. It is because of their bravery, resilience, and resolute commitment that we have a brighter future for generations to come.”Over the weekend, South Africa was hit by a snowstorm mostly affecting the province of KwaZulu-Natal.
Mashatile has called on citizens to strictly adhere to weather warnings as the world grapples with climate change. This follows the snowfall that left motorists stranded for almost two days on the N3 road between Estcourt and Harrismith at the weekend.“In celebrating our heritage, we must be alive to the impact of climate change on not only our wellbeing but also on our culture.
