THE Gauteng MEC for Education, Sport, Arts, Culture and Recreation Matome Chiloane is one of the latest people to offer their heartfelt condolences following passing of South Africa's legendary actress, beloved actress Nandi Nyembe.

- MTHOBISI NOZULELA mthobisi.nozulela@iol.co.za

MEC Chiloane said: “We are deeply saddened by the passing of the legendary Mme Nandi. She gave dignity to the stories of our people and carried them with authenticity and grace.

“Earlier this year, she spoke with rare honesty about her wish to keep working rather than being pitied. That humility and strength deeply touched the nation, reminding us of the resilience of our artists and the importance of celebrating their contributions while they are still with us. Mme Nandi’s name will forever stand among the greats who shaped South African storytelling.

“Our sincerest condolences go to the Nyembe family, friends and the entire creative community. May her soul rest in eternal peace”

Nyembe, who became a household name through her iconic roles in television dramas like Yizo Yizo and Zone 14.
