All the fallen soldiers who fought in peacekeeping missions since 1948 were honoured in a wreath-laying ceremony globally.
The country has also honoured the 14 soldiers who recently died in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
“And as Africa, we are the epicentre of instability in the world. And so it’s for us as Africans to work together to stabilise our problems for the sake of our children and for the sake of our future. And everybody has a responsibility to make sure that we don’t become this continent with all its wealth that becomes this epicentre of which we are,” said Motshekga.
