Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>The Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU) said the country needs more leaders cut from the same cloth as former finance minister and South African Reserve Bank (SARB) governor, Tito Mboweni.<\/p>\n

Mboweni died at Milpark Hospital in Johannesburg almost a week ago after battling a short illness.<\/p>\n

<\/b>
\nAs the political fraternity, business community, and the rest of the country mourn the 65-year-old, Mboweni has been hailed as an economic policy innovator and a champion of labour rights.<\/p>\n

The African National Congress (ANC) in Limpopo held a memorial service for Mboweni in Tzaneen on Thursday night, with COSATU and the South African Communist Party (SACP) provincial leaders also in attendance.<\/p>\n

COSATU\u2019s Lesiba Monyaki has called on other politicians to lead by Mboweni\u2019s example.<\/p>\n

“We need cadres who will not loot from the poor but ensure service delivery to the community. In comrade Tito Mboweni, the federation agrees that we\u2019ve lost a selfless activist, a dedicated and focused soldier. Surely, workers will remember him for his revolutionary contribution to the labour community and economic development of South Africa.”<\/p>\n
