POLOKWANE – Joined by friends and family, Makgoba was present at the occasion, which served to celebrate his accomplishments during his years in the service of different law agencies and as the first Limpopo Judge President. The statue will be a reminder to future law practitioners that the difference they make is not going unnoticed.
The High Court of South Africa, Limpopo Division invited guests to the unveiling ceremony which was held at the Polokwane High Court on Thursday.
