The family of late struggle stalwart – Andrew Mlangeni said they want the procurement process for his state funeral to be above board.
They added that Mlangeni’s values must be upheld since he detested corruption.
Mlangeni was the last remaining Rivonia trialist, who passed away earlier this week at age 95.
He will be laid to rest next week.
His funeral service will take place at the University of Johannesburg, Soweto Campus on 29 July at 9am.
This will be followed by a burial at Roodepoort cemetery.
“Mlangeni was not just Isithwalande because he was part of the group, he lived the ANC,” said Zuma.
“When the party wanted soldiers or volunteers, he was there. He believed in ANC policies and the freedom charter.”
A virtual condolences service for struggle veteran Andrew Mlangeni will be held later today. The last remaining Rivonia Trialist died at the age of 95 on Tuesday night. He is set to be laid to rest on Wednesday at the Roodeport cemetery. Courtesy #DStv403 pic.twitter.com/m5eVOQCguy
