Mr Speaker, hon members, the UDM extends its sincere condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of the late Sister Bernard Ncube. Sister Ncube is yet another of the class of 1994, that first crop of democratically elected Members of Parliament, to depart from us. It is also worth noting that she too, like many other significant political players, comes from community development organisations and women empowerment organisations, such as the Federation of Transvaal Women.
The late Sister Ncube was an active participant in politics for many decades and participated in events that shook our country in the latter half of the 20th century. She therefore leaves a legacy of considerable proportions. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family. May her soul rest in peace. Ke a leboga. [Thank you.] [Applause.]
