\u201cGeneral Moloi passed away peacefully, surrounded by family and friends at the Sunninghill Hospital in Johannesburg on Monday 23 December 2013,\u201d Cell C said.<\/p>\n
Moloi was a struggle stalwart who joined Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK) in 1962 and was part of the MK Military Headquarters, Cell C said. There he worked alongside Oliver Tambo, Joe Modise, Joe Slovo and Chris Hani as Chief of Operations.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was one of the architects in the integration and formation of the new SANDF in 1994 and served as Lieutenant General until his retirement. Due to his seniority and rank as a former commander in the Military, the ANC ordered that he be one of the pallbearers bidding Madiba farewell on his journey to his final resting place,\u201d said Jose Dos Santos, Cell C acting CEO.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was a leader, humble man and a real people\u2019s person,\u201d Dos Santos said.<\/p>\n
Cell C said that its shareholders, directors, management and staff of Cell C, CellSAF and 3C Telecommunications convey their deepest sympathy to the family of General Moloi.<\/p>\n
