The management of the University of South Africa (Unisa), together with its academic and epistemic communities, extends its sincere condolences to the Adams family, @BafanaBafana, @Masandawana, teammates, coaches, supporters and the broader South African sporting community on the untimely passing of Jayden Adams.

We hold his family especially close in our thoughts as they navigate this profound loss, so soon after the passing of his beloved grandmother. May they find strength, comfort and peace in the support of those around them during this difficult time.

At just 25 years old, Jayden represented the promise of South African football. He will be remembered not only for his talent on the field, but also for his commitment, humility and the inspiration he gave to many young people who looked to him with hope and admiration.

May his soul rest in eternal peace.

Addressing delegates at the #UnisaPVCSummit2026, Ms Yanga Mputa, South Africa's first female Tax Ombud, shared insights drawn from more than 20 years of experience in tax policy, legislation and administration. She brought a wealth of expertise gained at the South African Revenue Service, National Treasury and within the international tax arena.

Ms Mputa emphasised that trust is earned through consistent public experience. At the same time, effective governance depends on clear accountability, sound oversight and leaders who are prepared to make and own their decisions. She encouraged institutions to strengthen governance by fostering responsibility rather than adding unnecessary administrative layers.

"Strong leadership is not built by adding more bureaucracy, but by fostering accountability, clarity of purpose and responsible decision-making."
