A Book of Condolence for the late former Minister, Pravin Gordhan, will be made available this week at the office of the Department of Public Enterprises in Arcadia, Pretoria, for messages.
The lifelong activist and former Minister of Public Enterprises passed away on Friday and will be honoured with a Special Official Funeral Category 2 this week.
The Minister in the Presidency for Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation, Maropene Ramokgopa, conveyed her condolences to the Gordhan family on behalf of the Departments of Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation and Public Enterprises.
The late Gordhan became Minister of Public Enterprises in 2018 and served in the sixth administration until his retirement in June of this year.
“It is fitting that we honour the legacy of an activist and stalwart. The Book of Condolence is one way for South Africans and citizens of the world to remember former Minister Pravin Gordhan.
“His fearlessness and unwavering commitment to good governance will forever be remembered,” Ramokgopa said.
The Book of Condolence will be available for messages from 08:30 to 16:30 daily until the day of the funeral on Thursday, 19 September 2024. – SAnews.gov.za
