African National Congress (ANC) Women’s League Deputy President Lungi Mnganga-Gcabashe has passed away.
Mganga-Gcabashe passed away on Saturday at her home in Westville, KwaZulu-Natal, at the age of 64 years.
She has also served as the chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Public Enterprises and, most recently, as chairperson of the Portfolio Committee on Tourism.
The ANC has described Mnganga-Gcabashe as a lifelong activist and a servant of the people.
The party further describes her as a beacon of calm in turbulent times, a voice of reason when the noise was loud, and a steady hand in the rebuilding of our country’s democracy.
The ANC says that the late deputy president of the women’s league belonged to a generation of women who walked gently but carried within them the fire of justice.
The party says that Mngang-Gcabashe leaves behind a powerful legacy of principled leadership, humility, and unyielding love for her people.
