Members of the media are invited to a tribute event being hosted tomorrow for the late anti-apartheid struggle veteran Laloo 'Isu' Chiba.
The event is being hosted by the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation in conjunction with journalist and author Fakir Hassen, and the Avalon Group.
Panellists who will reflect on Chiba's life include Gauteng Premier and Foundation Board member David Makhura, Gauteng Finance MEC Barbara Creecy, anti-apartheid activist Khehla Shubane and Chiba family member Rashid Moosa.
