UASA sends its heartfelt condolences to the family of Minister in the Presidency Jackson Mthembu who succumbed earlier today due to Covid-19 complications.

We have lost an exemplary leader who served the nation with honour.

The Coronavirus continues to claim lives at a frightening pace. It is time for South Africans to heed the call and to join hands to fight the pandemic once and for all.

UASA continues to urge South Africans to stay vigilant and protect themselves against the virus. Remember to wash and sanitise your hands, wear your face masks in public at all times and keep your distance from others.
