He was a great man, a freedom fighter and a peacekeeper. May his legacy life on not only in the hearts and lives of South Africans but also in the hearts of every person around the world.
Today as we come together to commemorate and mourn our country’s loss, I am proud to be a South African.
Rest in peace Madiba!!! You will be missed by the world.
