The president has described Minister Mthembu, as a leader who was much-loved and greatly respected by many. “Minister Mthembu was an exemplary leader, an activist, and a life-long champion of freedom and democracy. He was a much-loved and greatly respected colleague and comrade, whose passing leaves our nation at a loss. “I extend my deepest sympathies to the minister’s family, to his colleagues, comrades, and many friends.”
This January the nation has suffered major losses of some of Mzansi’s public figures. Just recently legendary actress Lindiwe Ndlovu passed on at her home. The actress will be remembered for her great work ethic and for unwaveringly holding the torch high up for the incoming batch of actors in the industry.
Her family described her as an unsung incredible actress who lived a huge space in the creative world of acting.
“Her bright, large burning light has gone out and we are devastated to bring you this sad news. To us Lindiwe was family but to many, she was so much more,” said her family.
Another devastating death was that of actor legendary actor Sam Phillips. Sam was a prolific actor whose career spanned several decades. His latest project was on The Ferguson’s series Kings of Joburg. The 6-part series Kings Of Joburg was recently picked up by Netflix, and it premiered on December 4th.
