Government is on Monday expected to update its website with all scheduled memorial events taking place countrywide, leading up to the funeral of struggle stalwart Winnie Madikizela-Mandela at the weekend.

The inter-ministerial committee (IMC) on state funerals led by the Minister in the Presidency, Dr Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma met last Friday in preparation of the events, said spokesperson Phumla Williams.

Williams said a media briefing will be held on Tuesday to brief the nation on the logistical details of the memorial service.

The venue and time are still yet to be announced.

The official memorial service will be held at the Orlando Stadium on Wednesday, April 11.
