"NELSON ROLIHLAHLA MANDELA ”Madiba”, Mandela was born on July 18, 1918, at a village called Mvezo in the Transkei. 

As a small baby he and his mother moved to Qunu, the village he says holds his childhood memories. Thembu Kingdom.

Nelson Mandela is descended from King Tato, of the house of Thembu. His grandfather was the youngest son of King Ngubengcuka of Abathembu. His son (Nelson Mandela’s father) was Gadla Henry, who became Chief Mphakanyiswa of Mvezo. Nelson’s father was ousted from chieftainship by a magistrate, but this title has since been reinstated on his grandson, Mandla Zwelivelile.

Nelson Mandela completed his degree by correspondence through the University College of Fort Hare, and started to study law while working as a legal clerk.
He joined the ANC and helped transform it into a mass movement, striving for national freedom. In 1944, he helped found the ANC Youth League.
His conviction in the Rivonia Trial resulted in his sentence to life imprisonment. Here is the end of his famous statement from the dock at the Rivonia Trial:
“I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities. It is an ideal, which I hope to live for and to achieve. But if needs be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die.”
Nelson Mandela served 27 years in prison, most of them at Robben Island.
He was released on February 11, 1990.

A recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, Nelson Mandela was inaugurated as the first president of the democratic South Africa on May 10, 1994.
He was married to his third wife, Graca Machel, the former wife of the late President Samora Machel of Mozambique at the time of his passing.
Nelson Mandela has never wavered in his devotion to democracy, equality and learning.
Despite terrible provocation, he has never answered racism with racism.
His life has been an inspiration, in South Africa and throughout the world, to all who are oppressed and deprived, to all who are opposed to oppression ad deprivation.
His was a life that symbolises the triumph of the human spirit over man’s inhumanity to man.
Nelson Mandela passed away at his home in Johannesburg on 5 December 2013 after a long battle with lung disease.
