We are heartbroken to learn of the demise of famed South African poet MrDon Mattera. Don Mattera was a renowned South African poet, community activist, former journalist, and musician with an enviable life story. He was respected widely for his work in activism and for fighting for the rights of the underprivileged during the apartheid period. He was recently honoured with the 2022 Artfluence Human Rights Award for his commitment to human rights and community development.
As we celebrate this day, we do so in honour of former President Nelson Mandela and in recognition of his legacy. It is Madiba’s exemplary leadership, great statesmanship and moral force that continue to inspire South Africans as they try to build a cohesive nation.
A bright shining star has left us, Jessie Duarte gone too soon! Freedom Park mourns her passing and we are saddened at her untimely death. The nation stood still at the breaking news that you had left this world never to be seen again.
Freedom Park mourns the loss of Angola's former president Jose Eduardo dos Santos. Dos Santos who ruled Africa's second biggest oil producer for nearly four decades, died on Friday. One of Africa's longest serving leaders, dos Santos stepped down five years ago. He frequently described himself as an accidental president, taking the reins after Angola's first leader, Agostinho Neto.
On behalf of the CEO, Council, Management and Staff of Freedom Park our heartfelt condolences to the people of Angola.
