KZN ANC leaders pay their respects to Pravin Gordhan
KZN ANC leaders and
members of the party’s alliance partners arrived at the Durban family home of
former minister Pravin Gordhan on Wednesday.
Gordhan passed away last week after a battle with cancer.
Former KZN Human Settlements MEC Ravi Pillay and ANC eThekwini deputy chairperson Thembo Ntuli were among the delegation that arrived at the Gordhan home in Reservoir Hills to pay their respects to the family.
Some have been sharing stories about Gordhan’s contributions during the liberation struggle and the fight against state capture.
On Tuesday, the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation said that Gordhan had asked that his funeral take place in Durban.
