Repatriation of Cdes Kotane, Marks and Jones

 

 

The African National Congress welcomes reports from the Presidency that
South Africa is in discussions with Russia on the repatriation of the
remains of outstanding heroes of our struggle buried in Russia back to South
Africa. 

 

As we mark Heritage Month this year, we are heartened by the fact that the
South African government continues to lead efforts to ensure that those who
would have paid the highest price for the liberation of South Africa and her
people are never forgotten. 

 

Comrades Moses Kotane <http://www.sacp.org.za/main.php?ID=2325> , J B Marks
<http://www.sacp.org.za/main.php?ID=2304>  and David Ivon Jones
<http://www.sacp.org.za/main.php?ID=2296>  are just a few of these exemplary
heroes and heroines whose names continue to reverberate throughout the
annals of our history, telling the story of selflessness, dedication and
commitment to the course of freedom and democracy.

 

The African National Congress calls upon all South Africans to celebrate
Heritage Month this year by once again recommitting themselves to the ideals
of equality, freedom and a better life for all that so many people in the
country and abroad fought for. Twenty years into democracy, it is these
stories of perseverance and triumph that anchor our decisive and sustained
actions to build a National Democratic Society as we move South Africa
forward.
