Former South Africa President Nelson Mandela, his eldest grandson, Inkosi Zwelivelile Mandla Mandela, and his daughter Zindzi, pledged their full support for the African National Congress in the coming April 22 elections.

Former South Africa President Nelson Mandela, his eldest grandson, Inkosi Zwelivelile Mandla Mandela, and his daughter Zindzi, pledged their full support for the African National Congress in the coming April 22 elections.

The Mandelas’ endorsement is a big boost for the ANC party that is facing mounting opposition from reformers who say the party has abandoned its goals for the landless and poor.

“Today we are here to show that the house of Mandela will die in the ANC…We stayed in Robben Island for this organization. We were born in this organization, and we’ll never leave it like others did,” said Mandla Mandela.
