African National Congress (ANC) member Maggie Sotyu has described late Free State Education MEC Tate Makgoe as a down-to-earth person.
She spoke to SABC News on the sidelines of Makgoe’s funeral service that is underway at the University of the Free State’s south campus in Bloemfontein.
Basic Education Department Director-General Mathanzima Mweli says Makgoe was an amazing team player in the education sector.“To replace him will be extremely difficult, not impossible. The good thing is that he worked with a team of managers, administrators and School Governing Bodies at school level. A very strong ecosystem of education in the Free State.”
