President James Michel has sent a message of condolence to the family and friends of former government minister Karl St Ange, who died on Thursday, aged 89, on his home island of La Digue.
The President’s message reads:
“It is with profound sadness that I learn of the passing away of a former colleague minister and close friend, Karl St Ange of La Digue.
“We remember Karl as one of the brave men of our islands who strongly believed in an independent Seychelles. He was one of the leaders of the former Seychelles People’s United Party (SPUP), at the forefront in our fight for nationhood.
“We are grateful to him and his family for the role he played in building our nation.
“As one of the first ministers in the Second Republic, Karl made a significant contribution to the policies that have brought a great deal of progress in the lives of our people.
“At this time of great loss, my family and I convey our deepest and heartfelt condolence to the St Ange family and friends. They are in our thoughts and prayers during this time of grieving.” SEYNAT
