We share the sadness of our South African family, friends and colleagues at the passing of Nelson Mandela who died yesterday, Thursday 5th December at the age of 95. Across the world, leaders, celebrities and members of the public have been paying tribute. “God was so good to us in South Africa by giving us Nelson Mandela to be our president at a crucial moment in our history,” said long-time ally Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu.
At a service in Cape Town on Friday, he said Mr Mandela had “taught a divided nation to come together”.
