Martha Mmola Death | Obituary – ANC MP Martha Mmola passed away on Saturday due to a Covid-19 related illness.
This was disclosed by parliament’s presiding officers, National Assembly speaker Thandi Modise and National Council of Provinces chairperson Amos Masondo.
Mmola served as a permanent delegate to the National Council of Provinces for the ANC, representing the Mpumalanga province.
She was previously a member of the National Assembly, where she was also a member of the portfolio committee on police and standing committee on defense.
Said the presiding officers: “We have lost a committed legislator whose passion and drive for security matters transcended beyond parliament.
“Ms Mmola was a long-standing active advocate for secure and safe communities. She supported various crime-fighting initiatives and was particularly vehement against gender-based violence in her community. She will be remembered for her hard work, dedication, passion and love for the communities she served.”
We express our sympathy and deepest condolences to Mmola’s family today and in the days, weeks, months, and years that are to come as they cope with her passing. May her soul rest in peace.
