President Cyril Ramaphosa has sent out his condolences to Pravin Gordhan’s family, saying that the country has lost an outstanding leader.
Presidency spokesperson Vincent Magwenya elaborates, “South Africa has lost an outstanding leader whose unassuming persona belied the depth of intellect, integrity and energy with which he undertook his activism, his duty as a parliamentarian and his roles as a member of Cabinet. Pravin Gordhan’s personal sacrifices and his endeavours and achievements in various sectors of our society endowed him with the insights, empathy and resilience that fueled his service to the nation.
In the early 1980s, his activism led to his dismissal from the hospital, as well as detention by police and banning orders. Ramaphosa says Gordhan was a beacon of our fight against corruption, Pravin Gordhan stood up to derision and threats emanating from some in our nation who were scorched by his insistence that justice be dispensed against those who sought to undermine our democracy and raid our public resources and assets.
