The Vaal University of Technology’s Vice-Chancellor, Professor Dan Kgwadi, has passed away.

Kgwadi served as Rector of the North West University from 2014 until 2021. According to a statement issued by the university, Kgwadi passed away following a short illness.

The university has since sent its condolences to his family, friends, relatives, and colleagues. Details of memorial and funeral services will be announced at a later stage.

This followed after he took 14 days' sick leave in January, after he was hospitalised for five days.
