Former Anc Mp Bruce Kannemeyer Passes Away
Former African National Congress ANC MP Bruce Kannemeyer passes away at the age of 60.
In a statement released this morning, the provincial ANC described him as a loyal servant of the people and a committed advocate for unity and justice.
The former teacher was an active member of the Western Cape Teachers Union in the 80s and played a key role in establishing the South African Democratic Teachers Union SADTU.
Kannemeyer was elected to Parliament as an ANC MP in 1999, where he represented the Western Cape constituency. He served in the National Assembly until 2004, when he resigned.
After leaving Parliament, the ANC deployed Kannemeyer to local government, where he served as Municipal Manager in Stellenbosch and later in the Free State.
