Education foundation saddened by MEC Makgoe's death─── 10:13 Sun, 05 Mar 2023
The Foundation for Education and Social Justice Africa is deeply saddened by the untimely death of Free State Education MEC Tate Makgoe.
We join hundreds of thousands of South Africans who mourn the departure of a man who dedicated his life to help learners to create a future for themselves. The education fraternity is left with a gap that will be difficult to close for many years to come.
We will recall that under MEC Makgoe, Free State learners achieved the best results and they were always at the top when compared with their peers in other provinces. Even in the face of load-shedding and Covid-19, the Free State province continued to rise to the highest levels of academic excellence and achievement. All these can be attributed to the right leadership that was provided by MEC Makgoe.
During this difficult time, our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of MEC Makgoe and we pray that they will find comfort and healing.
