Pravin Gordhan, a prominent figure in South African politics, has sadly passed away at the age of 75 after battling cancer. Gordhan, who had a long and distinguished career in government, was a former minister and a stalwart member of the African National Congress party.
Following the recent elections in May, Gordhan retired from active politics after the ANC lost its parliamentary majority for the first time since coming into power in 1994. His family confirmed his peaceful passing in a hospital, surrounded by loved ones and comrades from the liberation struggle.
