Tributes pour in for Frene Ginwala

Tributes continue to pour in for Dr. Frene Ginwala who died at the age of 90. Ginwala was the founding Speaker of South Africa’s democratic Parliament. She died at her home Thursday evening after a stroke two weeks ago.

Today we mourn the passing of a formidable patriot and leader of our nation, and an internationalist to whom justice and democracy around the globe remained an impassioned objective to her last days.

“Among the many roles she adopted in the course of a life she led to the full, we are duty-bound to recall her establishment of our democratic Parliament which exercised the task of undoing decades-old apartheid legislation and fashioning the legislative foundations of the free and democratic South Africa,” said Ramaphosa.

In 2005, Ginwala was bestowed with the Order of Luthuli in Silver for her contribution to the struggle against gender oppression and her contribution to the struggle for a non-sexist, non-racial, just and democratic South Africa, said the Presidency.
