Happy Birthday Madiba

2008-07-18 07:43

Qunu - Nelson Mandela, the icon of the anti-apartheid movement, was marking his 90th birthday on Friday as tributes poured in from around the world.

One of Mandela's grand-daughters, Ndileka Mandela, said the family was planning "a surprise" for him in Qunu.

"We don't want to give too much away as it would be like knowing what's in a present before opening it," she told AFP.

"For him it is a special day, but for all of us too."

Celebrations of Mandela's birthday have been ongoing for several weeks, including a massive concert last month in Hyde Park, London, to raise funds for his Aids charity while limited edition coins and stamps bearing his image have been launched to also generate money for his charitable foundation.

Leave a birthday wish for Nelson Mandela on the comments board below and we'll pass it on to him.

Dear Madiba, as a 49 year old white South African, I did not know who you were or what you stood for when I was a child. But since your release from prison, and since I became aware of how you handled the transition, I just wanted you to know that you have become my idol and role model in how to treat people of all colours. Happy, happy birthday, Madiba, may you hang around long enough to see all of your wishes for this country come true. Best regards Debra Bekker

Have a lovely day Tata. Best wishes from the Viljoen family in Wilropark, Roodepoort.

Alicia 7/18/2008 10:08:33 AM
As a child in the late 50's I feared you. I thought you were like the Russians....you'll understand. Later, sitting on a Blaauwberg hill, looking over toward Robben Island, my thoughts were constantly, inquisitively seeking you. I wrote you a letter...I was 14...my Dad,afraid for me,refused that I post it. The day you emerged from Victor Verster, I watched avidly all day and fell in love with the kindness, bright eyes, loving face. A fitting tribute now would be to change SA's name to MADIBA.

Elize Muller 7/18/2008 10:08:39 AM
Happy birthday. May God bless you and remind us for another lifetime how to forgive, foget and make a meaningful life. How we love you! Elize Muller Bloemfontein

Scared and Sad 7/18/2008 11:41:07 AM
I wish Madiba all the best on his 90th birthday but feel very sad for those who have lost their lives to crime. I blame Madiba! He took away the death penalty as soon as he came into power without thought of the consequences. Now we have an undisciplined and violent youth lashing out because of unkept promises of jobs and houses from the 1994 ANC led by Madiba with no consequence to their actions!

Linda Maistry 7/18/2008 11:41:27 AM
Tata,if I could have one wish,it would be to be able to hug you for just one minute. I wish you everything you wish for yourself today Tata Madiba. May you be eternally blessed Tata,I love you.
