Yesterday the Nubian Jak Community Trust installed its 124th plaque to an upstanding member of the South African community in Britain. Pastor Temba was a man of faith, and a reluctant political activist. However, the church community he served included people from all backgrounds. Yesterday he was immortalised at the same South London church where pioneering ANC Nurse Victoria Magdala Harding, is also commemorated.

Our next tribute to a South African is expected to be Walter Sisulu in North London in 2027. We will update nearer the time.
