4 April 2009
The SACP has learned with great shock and sadness of the passing away of the Second Deputy President of COSATU, Cde Violet Seboni.
Cde Violet passed on after the car she was travelling in was involved in an accident outside Ventersdorp. The tragic accident happened whilst she was on her way to the North West province to carry out elections mobilization work for an overwhelming ANC victory in the April 22 General Election.
In her, workers have lost a fearless leader. In her, the movement has lost a dedicated footsoldeir. She will be solely missed for her forthrightness and discipline to the organization.
We owe it to her memory to deepen the mobilization for an overwhelming ANC electoral victory in the province of the North West specifically and in the country at large.
We wish to express our most sincere condolences to her family, friends and colleagues, comrades at COSATU and the entire membership of COSATU.
Issued by the SACP.
