Zuma Wishes Mandela Happy Birthday
President Jacob Zuma said South Africa was truly blessed to have a compatriot like Nelson Mandela in its midst, as he wished the former president a happy birthday.
He said former president Mandela deserved to be honoured through the 67 minutes of volunteerism campaign, developed by the foundation that promotes his work, because his entire adult life was spent in service of South Africa and for humanity throughout the world.
"It is an honour for us to be able to demonstrate our appreciation to him, and through him, to all our stalwarts and veterans who sacrificed their lives so that we could be free", Zuma said. He described Mandela as a selfless leader "who personifies human dignity and the limitless possibilities of all human beings".
