Citizens of Pietermaritzburgshared their feelings about this inter-national icon with NOMPENDULONGUBANE

PHOTO: NOMPENDULO NGUBANE“I was saddened by the death ofMandela because he was such agood and truthful leader. When Iheard the news about his passingon, I went to bed without any food.Mandela touched my heart in manyways, he was a God send and aleader who was dedicated to his jobof making this country a bettercountry for all. May his soul rest inpeace. He will forever live in ourhearts”.

“I feel thatMandela’sdeath hasbeen exagger­ated. Mandeladoesn’t evenknow us andwe are mourn­ing for him.Who are wereally mourn­ing for? It’strue that hefought for usto be free, buthis death hasbeen exagger­ated”.

“I’m not a Mandela fan and I feelthat his death has been exaggerat­ed. Mandela is not God and peopleare praising and worshiping him asif he was God. We do have otherheroes, such as Steve Biko, whofought for liberation but none ofthem got the exposure thatMandela is currently receiving. Theyhad no news channel like it is hap­pening with Mandela. None of thishappened when Jesus Christ diedyears ago, it’s an exaggeration”.

“I also feel that his death hasbeen exaggerated to the extremefor no reason. Mandela was notthe only struggle icon who foughtfor South Africa to be a democraticcountry. We do have other peoplewho were exiled. He is not theonly one and people must not giveall the praises to him as if he wasthe only one who fought forfreedom.”

“I guess each individualhas his or her ownreaction to Mandela’sdeath. The news brokemy heart because welost somebody whofought for peace andwe lost somebody whocreated unity in SouthAfrica. My father is fromMozambique and Graca(Mandela’s) wife is alsofrom Mozambique. Thatrelationship grew thelove of the old man inmy heart and that’swhy I felt so much painwhen I heard that hewas gone”.

Madiba’s legacy celebrated with Kirk FranklinTHEmuch-anticipated gospel festi-val better knownas theGospelBles-tival finally took place last weekendat the Moses Mabhida stadium inDurban.

Althoughitstartedtwohours lat-erthanscheduled,thespectatorsre-ally enjoyed a blasting, powerfulmusic frommanyAfricanartists likeAmaguardian,Uppsa,DavidThayo,Lutheran Gospel Choir, AmazingGrace, Thobekile, Phathwakahle,Dumi Mkokstad, Sfiso Ncwane andPastor Benjamin Dube.

The word of God was shared bythe apostle Lafore, Pastor Gopal,Pastor MarkMathew, Reverend Fa-ther Smiso Mngadi and BishopMpenduloNkambule fromtheWordof Hope ministries.

Programme directors whoshared the stagewereSiyaMhlongofromGagasiFM,SbuButhelezi fromUkhozi FM and the hilarious MrNzonzo from Highway Radio.

A moment of silence was ob-served after KwaZulu-Natal Pre-mierSenzoMchunudeliveredavery

moving speech about the legacy ofthe late iconNelsonRolihlahlaMan-dela.

The multi-talented Pastor Ben-jamin Dube closed the much antici-pated and successful Gospel Blesti-val with an hour of praise and wor-ship by belting out the songs thatmade everybody sing along - evenDudu Khoza from Ukhozi FM couldnot resist singing and dancing toDube’s energetic music sound.

The long-awaited american art-ist, Kirk Franklin finally came on

stage after fans waited for one andhalf hours for him to perform. Thehonourable Bishop MpenduloNkambule from the Word of Hopeministries introducedhim to theau-dience, which was getting restlessdue to Franklin not wanting to per-form. According to our reliablesources, Franklin was not happyabout sleeping in durban after theshow,duetothefactthathewassup-posed to perform in Port Elizabeththe following day.

SIMPHIWE MKHIZE

THE saintly nature of NelsonMandela’s life, contributionand recognition cannot be

disputed. It is easier to reflect onthe life of a person when he isdead. And to know that Mandelalivedfrom1918to2013isonitsownunbelievable.Looking at his life as the magnifi­cent story that it is, of course thereare many points where he couldhave died, that is, before he wentto prison, when he was in prison,and after he was released fromprison.But it did not happen.He died peacefully in the companyof loved ones at his Johannesburghome on the night of 5 December2013 and the whole world pausedand talked about him and himalone.I wonder how it feels like to be a

saint that refused to be recognisedas such. I mean, Madiba had all thequalities of a saint. Like the LordJesus Christ whose ministry lastedfor a short period, yet his legacy,influence, impact and leadershipis forever, Madiba only worked inpublic office for one term, yet hepersonifies the achievements ofthe 1994 political settlement andcordial race relations all over theworld.The assumption is that God does

not keep His special people whomHe is using for a greater purposefor too long because they might becorrupted, tainted, diminished instature or accumulate a worldlyblemish that would underminethe long–term purpose andmeaning of their lives.A world­class thinker, and simple

leader, who recognised that if hispeople’s stomachs remain hungry,the long walk to political freedomwould have been meaningless,Madiba dwarfs us individually and

collectively with his practical wis­dom and understanding of therealities and needs of the majority,and we can only try to emulatehim.I wish I had had a chance to inter­view Madiba as a journalist. Iwould have asked him how it feltto walk into prison and stay for solong with your fellow comrades,and know deep down in your heartthat the political discussions thatwere destined to make you thevery first president of a democrati­cally elected government of a richcountry should have happenedright around the time you werelocked up in jail.The closest I could get to Madiba

was when he visited the Universityof Natal as the political dialoguewith the then apartheid govern­mentwasinprogress,andhecameto our campus in the company ofthe likes of the legendary, the late,Chris Hani.At that time, my question to theANC leadership was around mymain grave concern about the so­called black­on­black violenceand how the ANC was managingthat in the light of counter­revolu­tionary activity that Africa waswitnessing in Mozambique,Namibia and Angola.And of course, he only recited my

question, and my leader’s voicecalled my name: “Comrade Piwehas asked…”, but then, in his typi­cal humility, he allowed his ANCcomrades to answer other ques­tions we had posed as students.But again I got very close to him

when I had a privilege of organis­ing a group of disabled youngstersfrom a KZN school to sing, danceand recite poetry for him when hewas president of the country. I hadthe honour of penning the poems.After raising funds for the team tocamp and rehearse in preparationfor one of the mighty Madiba’sbirthdays, I had the privilege ofwatching him very closely sittingcomfortably with the ANC’s thenKZN leader Zweli Mkhize, watch­ing the production I had put to­gether with the help of the well­

known KZN late performing artscoach, Lucky Mavundla, of theWinston Churchill Theatre.I know that it would have beenharmless at that time to walkstraight to him and greet him andshake his hand, but I refrainedfrom doing it and was satisfiedwith watching him enjoying ourshow.And of course, I have joined mil­

lions of people all over the worldin dirtying my hands each yearwhen we remember the day thissaint was born on July 18, and ofcourse the practice has been get­ting more and more spiritual everyyear. With verve, many South Afri­cans stand up and do somethingspecial on this auspicious day inJuly.Obviously there was something ofan artist about Madiba – the dresscode (i.e. the Madiba shirts), thelove for the arts and artists, andsports (he was a boxer himself),and children (hence the MandelaChildren’s Foundation) – it was soclear to see. Let alone his love forwriting and drawing pictures. It isnot surprising that he dies at atime when a new film about his lifethat has been made by a fellowSouth African, Anand Singh, is en­thralling the world.We have only just started to cele­brate Madiba. We will celebratehim for a very long time to come.My most favourite moment of himwas when Cuban leader, FidelCastro, came to visit South Africafor the first time after Mandela’srelease. And there was Madiba,trying to offer him a hand to shake.I just liked the way Castro pushedaway Madiba’s hand and gave hima warm embrace instead.It was an embrace that said: “My

darling brother and comrade inarms, we have come a long way –here we are today leading our peo­ple to freedom and self­realisa­tion.” God bless you, Madiba – youare an instrument of God and likeJesus Christ, you will always be inour hearts.* Simphiwe Mkhize is a local poet,creative writer and journalist.

Thank­you, Madiba ­ an instrument of God rests in peace
