Reading Time: < 1 minute

Deputy President David Mabuza has been given the Impact Leadership Award for 2019.

He was honoured at a glittering event of the 8th African Leadership Magazine Persons of the Year Awards in Sandton north of Johannesburg on Saturday night.

Mabuza is revered for his role in finding a solution to the political crisis in South Sudan.

After six years of an unsuccessful attempt, Mabuza managed to broker peace in South Sudan which was initially rocked by civil war since its independence in 2011.

Last week, he witnessed the swearing-in of former rebel leader as vice president Riek Machar and the inauguration of the government of national unity in that country.

He said he is humbled by the recognition.
