STATEMENT OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE The President of FRELIMO, Comrade Eduardo Chivambo Mondlane, v/as assassinated on the 3rd February, 1969. This brutal death has put a physical end to the life of a brother, a fighter, and of a man unequaled in stature in the history of the people of Mozambique, This criminal'"ra'ct, perpetrated by teacherous means, deprives the Mozambican people and FRELIMO of their leader and enlightened guide, of the dedicated and courageous militant v/ho throughout his life v/as the embodiment of the dignity and the fighting spirit of the Mozambican people. It is still difficult for us to weigh our loss by this untimely death; it is still difficult to digest the totality of his action in the creation, the structuring, the fermentation and the elaboration of Mozambican Nationalism.
