    The 95 Bokke loved President Mandela, they still remember him
    with tears in there eyes. Madiba has made his mark on the world stage.
    He never had any difference in who his dealing with comes from a real leader. Its never too late to apply this
    Magic. Thank you Mr Mandela

    There are people who blaze paths to further their own interest, and there are those who blaze paths to further humanity's interest. Those who uplift themselves get rewarded in life. Those who uplift everyone else get rewarded beyond their lifetime. Rest in peace, Nelson Mandela. The world world is grateful for your service to humanity.

    If only Mr Mandela was still alive, our country would have been in a much better position. He became too old and left us way before the people learnt enough about love and acceptance.

      Your comment touched me,ignorance and manipulation is used to brainwash us South Africans n unfortunately some people don't associate themselves with any race outside theirs and again this is ignorance...South Africa can only get better if we work together with love n acceptance.

    A beautiful and inspiring moment in history. I was reminded of it recently when I attended the Ireland v South Africa international in the Aviva stadium in Dublin last November. A beautiful evening in which a now multi racial Springbok team were cheered on by an equally multi racial traveling support base. I certainly enjoyed interacting with many of them while Ireland won what was an exciting match they were quick to point out that "the world cup is in 2023".!! May the best team win. Mike in the West of Ireland.

    I was so upset that discrimination still plagues the minds and hearts of many people, but after this truly inspiring story, my faith in humanity is restored. A great leader is hopeful for change through adversity, has pride in his people, but is himself very humble. When I look into Mandela's eyes, I see good man with a great heart.
