Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>The children of the former Vice-President of the Republic, Fernando da Piedade Dias dos Santos \u201cNando\u0301\u201d, buried on Monday (22), thanked the Angolan Executive for its support in organizing the funeral ceremony, which was crucial for a fitting tribute to a man who served the country until the end of his life.<\/b><\/p>\n

Speaking during the tribute ceremony, held in Luanda, on behalf of the family, the children highlighted the role of the President of the Republic, Joa\u0303o Lourenc\u0327o, for the availability and sensitivity shown from the first moments of his passing, as well as the support of the First Lady of the Republic, Ana Dias Lourenc\u0327o, who remained close to the family throughout the entire process.<\/p>\n

The family also expressed their gratitude for the presence of official entities, friends, activists, and citizens who attended the wake, with special mention of the ruling party\u2019s OMA (Angolan Women’s Organization) members, whose songs and words of comfort helped to ease the pain of the loss.<\/p>\n

In the tribute, his children described Fernando da Piedade Dias dos Santos as a present father, an educator, a man of firm character, but profoundly human, who reconciled demandingness with tenderness and made his word a commitment.<\/p>\n

They recalled his unconditional love for his family, his ability to listen, advise and unite, as well as the attention he dedicated to his grandchildren, to whom he transmitted values, stories and affection.<\/p>\n

According to the family, politics was never, for Fernando da Piedade Dias dos Santos, a space for vanity, but for service, dedication and defense of principles, values and human dignity.<\/p>\n

Even in moments of disagreement, they affirmed, he maintained coherence, serenity and respect, qualities that earned him recognition in and out of public life.<\/p>\n

They also highlighted the honoree’s journey through the various stages of Angola’s contemporary history, from national affirmation, through the period of conflict, to the peace achieved in 2002 and the country’s reconstruction phase.<\/p>\n

The Children emphasized his contribution to the consolidation of the State and to the search for political solutions through dialogue.<\/p>\n

Because of his achievements, the family assured that the legacy left by Fernando da Piedade Dias dos Santos, who died suddenly on the 18th, will remain alive in the values he transmitted, in the example of life he left, and in the commitment to remain united, honoring his memory and his mission for Angola.<\/p>\n
