Cape Town – Well-known local PR expert and former business journalist Ruth Golembo has passed away in Cape Town.

She was in the news last year when her Lange 360 Strategic Communications joined forces with Meropa Communications to form a national public relations consultancy under the Meropa brand. Golembo joined the Meropa board at the time. She took on a newly created strategic role in the combined business.

Before the merger, Lange was in operation for almost 30 years and offered PR services, including communications strategy, stakeholder relations, publicity, crisis communications, and investor relations and consultancy.

At the time of the merger, in June 2015, Meropa CEO Peter Mann said he greatly admired what Golembo and her team had achieved in the communications and public relations arena. – Fin24
