Mandela was a hero

 I AM grieving after the death of Nelson Mandela, a freedom fighter, a person I have admired as a hero in 1980s.

What he did after being released from Robben Island was historic, a legacy and a benchmark for current and future generation of political leaders. 

When I got married, I wanted to name my first son Nelson Mandela, but she  was a girl so I named her Winnie Mandela.

Good  bye  my hero, may your soul rest in peace
