The South African Communist Party (SACP) has learnt with deep sadness of the passing away of comrade Bavumile Vilakazi, South Africa's High Commissioner to
Uganda. Vilakazi, who previously served as the first mayor of the Ekurhuleni metropolitan council, was a long-standing member and a respected leader of the democratic movement. South Africa has lost a dedicated and committed patriot who had dedicated his life to the cause of the freedom, democracy and development of our people.
The SACP extends its heartfelt condolences to his family, comrades , colleagues and friends as they mourn this great loss. As the SACP we lower our red flag in remembering and honouring this great leader and cadre of our movement. His revolutionary dedication and example will always guide us in our revolution.
