The funeral service of former Minister Pravin Gordhan has begun at the Inkosi Albert Luthuli International Convention Centre in Durban.
President Cyril Ramaphosa will deliver the eulogy at the Special Official Category 2 Funeral.
Gordhans body arrived earlier after family and close relatives held a prayer at his family home in Reservoir Hills.
Struggle veterans are among the mourners.
Gordhan died in a Johannesburg hospital last week at the age of 75, after a battle with cancer.
