TRIBUTE | Jacqueline Mofokeng: A fighter in the trenches


Daily Sun
Mahlodi Muofhe writes that corruption and malfeasance, especially in the public sector, government and our state-owned entities, troubled ANC MP Jacqueline Mofokeng no end. Mofokeng died on Thursday from complications due to Covid-19.
Mme Jacque Mofokeng, you have passed on as you had lived - with your bootstraps on. You did not shy away from working excruciatingly hard for the downtrodden. 
Attaining a high positions? It was never part of your DNA.
I respected you so much and will continue to do so even as your remains lie still.
Your unparalleled unwavering commitment to fight for the rights of our vulnerable members of society such as women, older persons and children will forever remain etched in my mind. I am sure many others who have known you for decades will attest to my testimony. Hardly a day went by without us communicating about the ills affecting communities.
