Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>A condolence book was opened this morning at the Sir Harilal Vaghjee Memorial Hall, in Port-Louis, to pay tribute to the former President of the Republic of Mauritius, Mr Karl Auguste Offmann, GCSK, following his demise on 12 March 2022.<\/p>\n

The Acting President of the Republic of Mauritius, Mr Marie Cyril Eddy Boissezon, the Attorney General, Minister of Agro-Industry and Food Security, Mr Maneesh Gobin, and other key personalities were present to express their condolences.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the Acting President said that late Mr Offmann was a long-time acquaintance and expressed his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, Mr Boissezon paid tribute to his unflinching patriotism and devotion for the Republic. \u2018He was an outstanding model of altruism and worked selflessly for the well-being of others\u2019, stressed the Acting President.<\/p>\n

Mr Maneesh Gobin remembered the former President as a Great Statesman and underpinned his strong notion of discipline in political matters. This principle has also enabled him to overcome various struggles during his life, pointed out the Minister.<\/p>\n

Mr Gobin also indicated that Mr Offmann has always been supportive and offered friendly advices to young and new politicians to whom he inculcated his principles of discipline.<\/p>\n

As for the Ambassador of the Republic of France to Mauritius, Mrs Florence Causs\u00e9-Tissier, she underlined that President Offmann\u2019s strong sense of commitment and devotion as a political figure and a citizen undeniably stand out over the course of his political career. He showed a sense of humanism in the way he served the citizens of the Republic and Governmental institutions, she observed.<\/p>\n

Also present, the World Health Organisation Representative in Mauritius, Dr Laurent Musango, stated that he wished to express his condolences to the Republic of Mauritius for the loss of a great Statesman, who he emphasised, has contributed significantly to the progress of the country.<\/p>\n

His life values and principles as a family man and also being the embodiment of kindness and humility, turned Mr Karl Auguste Offmann into a role model for all citizens, he added.<\/p>\n

Likewise, the Ambassador of the Arab Republic of Egypt, Dr Alya’a Samir Borhan, expressed the profound condolences of the Government of Egypt to Mauritius, and said that the former President was a great leader and was well respected in Africa.<\/p>\n

She reaffirmed Egypt\u2019s intent to stand in solidarity with Mauritius in such difficult times, and renewed its commitment to strengthen the two country\u2019s bilateral relations.<\/p>\n
