The Congress of the People (COPE) and residents of Ngcingwane village in the Eastern Cape have commemorated political stalwart and community builder, Nomaka Epainette Mbeki.

and residents of Ngcingwane village in the Eastern Cape have commemorated political stalwart and community builder, Nomaka Epainette Mbeki. MaMbeki died at the age of 98 in 2014. She was the founding member of the National African Federated Chamber of Commerce.

MaMbeki ran projects at Cingwana village to develop the lives of the people. Lulama Sangqu was one of those who worked in MaMbeki’s projects. She says she acquired a skill that still benefits her and her family today. Sangqu says, “COPE has made us realise that our icons like MaMbeki we just let them go and never remember their work. In this village we have a bit habit of forgetting what people have done and forget about them. I would celebrate MaMbeki by carrying on doing what she was doing not destroying what she has done.”“She worked tirelessly. She built the school. So we decided to come and say mama we still remember you as Congress Of The People. MaMbeki was a generous person.

Although some of the projects begun by MaMbeki are no longer functioning, some residents remain inspired to continue her legacy.
