Now this is sad.Struggle veteran dies in Soweto

In parliament until aged 85?!?
Why wasnt she put out to pasture at the normal retirement age like the rest of us mere mortals who are not on the ANC gravy train?
 
It was thanks to people like her that the anc have a gravy train - woe betide them. These oldies put the present lot to shame.
She was elected to Parliament as an ANC MP in 1994. In a newspaper interview, Kuzwayo expressed her surprise at actually making it into the National Assembly, and her regret at only getting there in the later years of her life.

"Sitting there, with different parties, listening to speeches that you wanted to contradict, that was an experience I did not expect because of my years," she said.

She did not stand in the June 1999 election.
