Dear Editor
The Democratic Alliance (DA) in the Eastern Cape is saddened to learn about the passing of Dr Tertius Delport and we would like to extend our sincerest condolences to his family and friends.
Dr Delport was born in Humansdorp in the Eastern Cape and made a significant contribution to South Africa’s political landscape post 1994.
He was a founding member of the DA and the deputy chairperson of the DA’s Federal Council, a respected attorney and a Dean of the Faculty of Law at the former University of Port Elizabeth. He also played a significant role in drafting the Constitution of South Africa.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
Regards
Andrew Whitfield MP
DA EC Provincial Leader
