Tributes

Feeling terrible for Lydia, Danelle, Lidian and Leandré after hearing that Professor Daniel Plaatjies passed away. They were my first “bonus family” when I got to Joburg. Daniel was such a dignified man, full of love and life. Death be not proud. 💔

Go well Prof Daniel Plaatjies, it’s so unfair that you are no more. I refuse to accept. I remember those days that we worked so hard to establish the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA). We will remember your commitment to serve the weak, the poor and the vulnerable.
