Mandela Funeral: Live updates

QUNU, South Africa (AP) — Anti-apartheid hero Nelson Mandela has been buried in the African ground he loved.

His casket was lowered into the earth after military jets and helicopters with South African flags displayed flew over the pallbearers.

Government spokesman Phumla Williams said Sunday the ceremony, which was concluded with TV cameras turned off, has ended.

South African television showed Mandela's casket at the family gravesite. The broadcasting was stopped at the request of the Mandela family.

The burial took place among the rolling hills of Qunu, the village in eastern South Africa where Mandela grew up and where he was taken for burial in an elaborate ceremony Sunday.
 
There seems much more to this gentleman than meets the eye, I believe that 'Madiba' despite all the suffering, had a look of deep satisfaction and achievement. By this I believe he had restored the dignity of his 'Father's' kingship and restored the dignity of his family. 'Mandla Mandela' seems quite capable of carrying on with the future expectations. 'Rest in peace', Nelson Mandela, I did not know you but deeply respect you.

Sio kagame..

Argument ya huyo mganda ni kuwa Mandela was in detention for 27 yrs then he ruled RSA for five yrs only but Museveni was in the forest for Five yrs only but he has ruled Ug for 27 yrs. Alikuwa anafanya comparative analysis. Kimsingi hampendi Mu7!!!!
 
Siku ya jumanne pale FNB Kikwete alipotambulishwa hakushangiliwa wala hakumulikwa na kamera. waSauzi wana usongo na Kikwete li-nchi lake linaingiza viroba vya maunga huko Sauzi. Viroba vya maunga vinavyowafanya vijana wa kisauzi wawe machizi.
 
Nilisikia watamzika na ng'ombe, So isingekuwa busara kama wangeonesha live ng'ombe hai akirushwa kaburini. Tamaduni zingine zinatisha sana shemeji.

Yaan ndo maana hawakuweza kuonesha, Wanaharakati wa haki za wanyama wangeuja juu kama moto wa kifuu!!!
