Kieswetter said, "I had the pleasure of having to work with him when he recommended my appointment to the president in 2019." 

"He was unconventional but clear, he gave me all the support that I needed as a commissioner."

"I will remember him as someone whom I had a great working relationship with."

"What was remarkable about him is independent thinking, even if he had to stand up to his friends and political comrades when it comes to policy clarity." 

"He always did what was best for the country," he said.
