Former South African President Nelson Mandela Has Died At The Age Of 95 by trendystuf(f): 11:05pm On Dec 05, 2013 |
Nelson Mandela, who emerged from prison after 27 years to lead South Africa out of decades of apartheid, has died, South African President Jacob Zuma announced late Thursday. Mandela was 95. "He is now resting. He is now at peace," Zuma said. "Our nation has lost its greatest son. Our people have lost a father." The former president battled health issues in recent months, including a recurring lung infection that led to numerous hospitalizations. With advancing age and bouts of illness, Mandela retreated to a quiet life at his boyhood home in the nation's Eastern Cape Province, where he said he was most at peace. Despite rare public appearances, he held a special place in the nation's consciousness. May his soul rest in peace...amen!
