Nelson Mandela’s daughter, Makaziwe, has told our source about the
“wonderful” final hours of the former president, who died aged 95 last
Thursday. Ms Mandela said his wife, Graca, the children and
grandchildren were all there to say goodbye.
South Africa is observing a series of commemorations over the next
week leading up to the funeral on Sunday. More than 100 current or
former heads of state or government will attend the funeral or Tuesday’s
national memorial.
Makaziwe said, “Until the last moment he
had with us, you know… The children were there, the grandchildren were
there. Graca was there. So we are always around him and even at the last
moment, we were sitting with him on Thursday the whole day.”
She added that “I think from last week Friday until Thursday, it was a
wonderful time. If you can say the process of death is wonderful. But
Tata (Nelson Mandela) had a wonderful time, because we were there.
