"What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived, it is what difference wehave made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we had".
The voice of the African lion shouting from the southern cape, the place with hope from the native and hostility from the foreigners.
Voice of a lion who made African proud of him, he seems as only king in a jungle marked the start of the history until the last day of his existence.
Lion who showed the way of Independence, love and tolerance to the African farmers, bushman, hunters and little civil servants that African is their home and it was in their hand to make it better place to live.
Nine years has gone now since Africa lost Nelson Mandela "Tata Madiba" who served Africa from apartheid regime, the segregation policy in Southern Africa, a brave leader who survived twenties of years in prison to ensure African stay free from white domination.
It was 5th December 2013 when Africans sheltered with fear, cries and sadnes as he was silently for ever towards the new life to heaven.
His history started to flow in the heart of the world encouraging people to honor his name, appreciate his efforts to the development of world Peace, Unity and love, his famous quote " It is in our hand to make our own world a better place to live" started to work among Africans leaders, scholars and farmers considering him as a hero of the century.
It is a time now to live his legacy for what he did for his life time, African should preserve love, peace , and unity as Mandela did when he brought together different South African race Dutch, British and native African.
All races started to feel united considering humanity among themselves as a single Nation called South Africa Republic.
"It is always seem impossible until is done" Mandela said showing the difficulties that Africans can face in the process of building the nation.
Mandela believed in tolerance and hope with a spirit of not giving up, to insist his idea he said "Winner is a dreamer who never give up".
Xenophobic movements is just like apartheid the different is that xenophobia comes from natives where by apartheid is from whites (Intruders) towards the blacks (natives) such practice is against Nelson Mandela dreams he asked the whites to give Africans equal opportunities to the black Africans so that to meet the demand of equality and Unity.
It is time now for Africans to recall the effort of Mandela and keep on practice to equalize their humanity and socialization, African current government should unite their people and work after public interest not for their own interest.
Doctors, professor and other scholars also should remember the statement "Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world" as it was adresed by late Mandela to show how education can bring positive impact to the world by influencing scholars to use their acquired skills to change the world.
Mandela believed in charity and assistance to others who needs help, he established many foundation to help children, disabilities, fund raising and loan giving foundation.
In 1999 he established "Nelson Mandela Foundation" to promote his vision of freedom and equality for all also he established other several organization like Nelson Mandela children foundation.
For the appreciation of his efforts Nelson Mandela won the Nobel peace prize in 1993 this marked the history to be the first African leader to be awarded this kind of peace prize in the century.
It is true that 5th December will remain the significance day for Africans in Commemoration of Mandela death and remember him as a Lion of Africa who made Africa Especially southern Africa a peaceful place to live despite of some sort of challenges African still facing today.
Currently the condition is almost good compared to previously time where dutch and blacks were not freely to settle and shake their hands together.
Mandela was born in 18th July 1918 in mvezo cape province in south Africa and he died in 5 th December 2013, he was a first elected black head of state and the first elected in a fully representative Democratic Election.
