President Cyril Ramaphosa has declared a mourning period of seven days in honour of the late founding speaker of South Africa’s democratic Parliament Dr Frene Ginwala.

Ginwala passed away at her home in Cape Town last week, following a stroke two weeks earlier. She was 90 years old.

The national flag be flown at half-mast at all flag stations around the country from January 17 until the evening of January 24.

The Presidency will, in the coming days, announce details of an official memorial service taking place in Johannesburg on January 24 as a tribute to the late speaker.
