We owe it to world icon and former President of South Africa, Dr. Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela to continue to unite in prayer and trust God for his speedy recovery, North West Premier Thandi Modise said on Monday.
“To many across the globe, in our country and province, Tata Madiba is a unifier and a symbol of reconciliation. Though we know that he is not immortal like all of us, we are inspired by his fighting spirit and wish his family all the strength for them to unite in love and continue to give him all the support he needs. We are confident that he is receiving the best medical care and treatment that the best of our facilities and medical specialists have to offer,” said Premier Modise.
“Though we should appreciate that there are a few people the world over who match Madiba’s stature as the greatest freedom fighter and statesman the world has known, the zeal to keep the public informed about his condition should not erode his dignity,” added Modise.
