Speaker, I move:
That the House -
1) notes the sad passing of a gallant freedom fighter, a pathfinder of note and community builder, Mama Mittah Seperepere or Goeieman, as she was affectionately known, on 30 October 2010;
2) further notes that Mama Mittah was born on 28 December 1929 in Riverton and lived most of her adult life in exile;
3) remembers her participation in sowing the seeds of the struggle for women's emancipation inspired by the Programme of Action of 1949 of the African National Congress Youth League and that her involvement earned her the wrath of the Special Branch, culminating in her imprisonment in 1965;
4) further remembers that in 1989 Mama Mittah was appointed ANC Chief Representative to Madagascar, La Runion, Seychelles, Mauritius and the Comores;
5) recalls that in 1990, she returned to South Africa and served as a Member of the National Assembly from 1994 to 1999; and
6) conveys its heartfelt condolences to the Seperepere family, friends and comrades in the ANC and its alliance partners.
Agreed to.
