Mthethwa's children have described him as a man of virtue.
Children of the late South African ambassador to France, Nathi Mthethwa, have paid tribute to their father, honouring him as a pillar of wisdom, an attentive parent, and someone who was more than just a father.
“Where does one begin to bid farewell to you, Nyambose…a person who was so much more than the title of being a father. In times of loss and misdirection, you were our compass, a fountain for those who seek the test of knowledge, a shelter from the storm, and at times, the storm itself.”
Paying tribute on behalf of the children, Mkhululi Mthethwa says his father was a man of virtue, integrity, courage, and honesty, whose presence will always be missed.
