SA Predident hails Mabuza as a political strategist who fostered unity

Date: Jul 12, 2025

South African (SA) President Cyril Ramaphosa has paid tribute to former Deputy President David Mabuza, at his final send off in Mbombela, in Mpumalanga province.

Delivering the eulogy at Mabuza’s funeral, Ramaphosa echoed sentiments expressed of Mabuza, being a political strategist, and a humble man.

Mabuza passed away last week in a Johannesburg hospital at the age of 64.

 

Ramaphosa also hailed Mabuza, as a man, who fostered unity.

“In his eternal sleep, he is demonstrating that our many differences- along political party, and racial lines, and the numerous disputes we may have, are eclipsed by our shared desire to follow his lead in building a just, equitable, and caring society. DD Mabuza stood firm for unity, the unity of his movement, a movement that he served with total commitment,” says Ramaphosa.
