ANC STATEMENT ON THE PASSING OF COMRADE SENZO MKHIZE
7 May 2016
The African National Congress and its allies, the masses of our people, our Provincial Legislature and the community of KwaZulu-Natal are deeply shocked and saddened by the untimely departure of CdeSenzo Mkhize.
This is a moment of great pain and grief for the family of the late Cde Khabazela and his movement, the ANC. Cde Senzo Mkhize, a PEC member of the ANC and the Chief Whip of the Provincial Legislature and former ANC Spokesperson passed away yesterday afternoon following a long battle with illness.
He departed at critical time when our movement the organization he has dedicated all his life was seized with an important task of transforming our province into a non-racial, non-sexist and prosperous home for all our people, particularly the poor of the poorest.
In this critical phase of our struggle we needed not just one, not two, not ten but a thousands SenzoMkhizes, and because of that all us know that it was not the time to loose the one Khabazela we had.
