[kictanet] Nelson Mandela

Mandela Legacy,

This Grand Man from Africa did what he did, in the time he promised. He
left office in time and kept his word. Even after the huge sacrifices of
fighting for freedom, he was kind and generous enough to let others
continue leadership.

We salute Madiba for the values that Africa still needs to learn to adopt.

Fare Thee Well Madiba.

Regards
Gideon Rop
