The African National Congress ANC remembers its late struggle veteran, Adolphus Boy Mvemve, not as victim, but as a victor.
Speaking at his Special Official Provincial Funeral Service and reburial ceremony, ANC Secretary-General, Fikile Mblula said his faith in freedom was stronger than fear.
The apartheid regime assassinated the 43-year-old Mvemve, on the 12th of February 1974, with a parcel bomb in Lusaka, Zambia in a cross-border terrorism act.
The Johannesburg City Hall was packed to capacity by mourners attending Mvemves official funeral service and reburial ceremony.
Mvemve was one of the many anti-apartheid activists, who died in exile. He left the country in 1963 soon after tying the knot.
