Independent Media reports that Democratic Alliance (DA) chief whip Natasha Mazzone announced on Thursday ’’with great sadness’’ that her colleague Cameron MacKenzie had died after a ’’severe battle’’ with Covid-19.
McKenzie, who was DA spokesperson on communications and digital technologies, would have turned 61 next month. On 7 January last year, Mackenzie was shot during an attempted robbery in Dainfern, Johannesburg. After surgery, MacKenzie had almost fully recovered, but died on Wednesday night in Fourways. ’’Cameron was a valued member of the party’s parliamentary caucus and a dear friend who will be missed sorely. South Africa has lost a great public servant who served his country diligently and with the utmost passion,’’ said Mazzone in a statement.
