J Zuma: Tribute to Minister Steve Tshwete

It is quite ironic that Cde Stephen Vukile Tshwete passed on shortly before Freedom Day, a freedom he dedicated his entire life to fighting for, and a freedom he was still continuing to defend and give meaning to. One is filled with a sense of pride, and can speak about Cde Tshwete without any fear of contradiction, because he had internalised ANC polices and culture in the true sense, and lived the ANC. Cde Tshwete understood ANC policies in their most complex and refined sense. [highlighted result]
