London: Daaga had an impact

In a statement, London said, “Many of us remember the fervour with which we embraced his vision and the power, passion and persuasiveness of his addresses as he mobilised the people and forced the country to re-evaluate its basic principles and, eventually, re-fashion itself.”

The Chief Secretary declared that Daaga’s lifelong commitment to a TT, “where there is equity for all, regardless of race, religion, social station or geographical location should continue to inspire us.”

London added, “Perhaps our greatest tribute to him would be our contribution to the achievement of those objectives which he pursued throughout his life.”
