Msimang says Gordhan revitalised the South African Revenue Service during his tenure as commissioner.
"He was strong and very robust. I don't know if there is anyone who would have claimed to have done more than he has. He paid the penalty for that and was removed from the cabinet. He was a principled man, an intelligent person and a good human being."
Earlier this week, Defend Our Democracy held a night vigil for Gordhan.

The organisation's Rekgotsofetse Chikane says the struggle stalwart protected the country’s democracy.
"He has been a staunch supporter, and he has been a friend to DOD over the past few years. During this time, it makes us reflect about the shortness of life, the ability of the human spirit to overcome many obstacles."
