Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>Democratic Alliance (DA) leader and Minister of Agriculture John Steenhuisen has wished Pravin Gordhan well as the former finance and public enterprises minister battles illness in hospital.<\/p>\n

Steenhuisen paid tribute to Gordhan at the Cape Town Press Club on Thursday for his role as a corruption buster.<\/p>\n

<\/b>
\nGordhan was hospitalised earlier this week, where the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation said he continues to receive treatment for an undisclosed condition.<\/p>\n

The 75-year-old retired from active politics after the May polls, after thirty years in government.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn paying tribute to his incredible bravery during the nine wasted years of the Zuma era, our thoughts and prayers should be with him and his family in this particularly difficult time. Certainly, from my side as the leader of the Democratic Alliance, we wish him a speedy recovery, and we wish comfort to his family and friends.\u201d<\/p>\n
