In June, Ngidi threatened to take legal action against three major universities in the province, the University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban University of Technology and Mangosuthu University of Technology, if they did not resume teaching and learning after closure due to the Covid-19 pandemic. .

In 2018, Ngidi withdrew his name as a candidate for the state’s capture legal and investigative teams, saying time constraints were an issue.

Tributes to Ngidi arrived on social media on Sunday. Among them was a tweet from former Post Office CEO Mark Barnes, who shared a photo of himself with Ngidi, former Post Office COO Lindiwe Kwele and CFO Jabulani. Dlamuka, in parliament.

“We mourn the passing of our Sapo president, Comfort Ngidi, a gentle giant,” Barnes wrote.

The Durban Black Lawyers Association praised Ngidi for personifying “the fight for the transformation of the legal industry and the judiciary.”

Details about Ngidi’s funeral are unknown at this time.
