Hon Deputy Speaker, there is no doubt whatsoever that the late Mavis Magazi made an incredible contribution to South African politics. There are two important cycles in a human life and for one to begin, the other has to come to an end. Indeed, we all exist through the grace of God Almighty. Let us never forget that we can achieve all things through the Lord who strengthens us.
On behalf of the Minority Front, I convey heartfelt condolences to the friends and relatives of the late hon Mavis Magazi, who has been called to rest. The parting of ways is a sad occasion, especially if a person had such a great spirit of humility, an amazing personality, and a remarkably warm and caring character as the late Magazi.
In this time of bereavement, let us continue to pray that the Lord will bestow strength, courage and fortitude on the Magazi family to deal with their irreplaceable loss. Our condolences also go out to the ANC for the loss of a vibrant, hardworking member and a true citizen of humanity. May peace be granted unto her through the grace of God Almighty. May her soul rest in peace. Thank you.
