Nelson Mandela’s daughter, Makaziwe, has told the BBC about the “wonderful” final hours of the former president, who died aged 95 last Thursday. Ms Mandela said his wife, Graca, the children and grandchildren were all there to say goodbye.
Makaziwe told the BBC’s Komla Dumor that “Until the last moment he had with us, you know… The children were there, the grandchildren were there. Graca was there. So we are always around him and even at the last moment, we were sitting with him on Thursday the whole day.”
She added that “I think from last week Friday until Thursday, it was a wonderful time. If you can say the process of death is wonderful. But Tata (Nelson Mandela) had a wonderful time, because we were there.
