Mandela and seven other accused where sentenced to life imprisonment in June 12, 1964 after they were convicted of sabotage.
He served 18 years in Robben Island from 1964 to 1982 before he was transferred to Pollsmoor Prison in Cape Town. Madiba spent the last prison sentence at Victor Verster Prison from December 1988 where he was kept in a house. The announcement of his release was made on February 2, 1990 by the last President of the apartheid era, the late FW De Klerk.VIDEO: Nelson Mandela walks out of prison with his then wife, Winnie Madikizela-Mandela on his side:
And that is when our real problems started ,the demise of a country
My marriage 33 years + 1 week. Two beautiful kids + 2 beautiful grandkids. Been a breeze in comparison to SA under ANC rule.
33 years since our oppressor was 'released' from his luxurious house in Cape Town. He was such a pivotal person to ensure that apartheid continued peacefully and the beneficiaries (his handlers) taking no accountability for the new apartheid. Please stop with your propaganda.
If his release meant we were given this ANC then hayi, maybe he should've...
One day, Mandela's statues will fall in this country.
So so sad, to see the greatest President SA ever had’s vision destroyed. Is this what South Africa is today; what the freedom struggle truly was about? Further division and thinning out the population by whichever means necessary? Only God, Jesus & Holy Spirit can fix things!!
People like Ramaphosa will never be able to fill his shoes... boldness . integrity.. decisiveness . The man should just resign has failed dismally. Problem: who is BOLD enough?
It also marks 33 years of the soporofic that was fed to Black people. A soporific that has lulled us to a sleep,a sleep that has resulted in the current mess we find ourselves in,while living in this colony called South Africa!
And that happened is the destruction of South Africa. Looting, Stealing, Corruption and the list goes on n on
