What were Mandela's view about the black people who fought and sacrificed their lives for the country's political independence? (8 Marks Question)

Dear student,

Nelson Mandela wished to thank all the black people who had fought and sacrificed their lives for the freedom of their land and felt sorry that he could not do so. He regretted the fact that those noble people could not live to see the result of their sacrifice. He felt he was the sum total of all those patriots who believed in freedom and made the supreme sacrifice fighting for emancipation from oppressive rule.

Regards

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela (18 July 1918 – 5 December 2013) was a South African anti-apartheid revolutionary, politician, and philanthropist, who served as President of South Africa from 1994 to 1999. He was the country's first black chief executive, and the first elected in a fully representative democratic election. His government focused on dismantling the legacy of apartheid through tackling institutionalised racism and fostering racial reconciliation. Politically an African nationalist and democratic socialist, he served as President of the African National Congress (ANC) party from 1991 to 1997. He was winner of the Nobel Peace Prize with F.W. de Klerk in 1993. If u like it plz mark it brai
