“Together, hand in hand, with our matches and our necklaces, we shall liberate this country. – Winnie Madikizela Mandela

It’s 2: 00 PM on day 2758 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray,   read Zechariah 9:9 and spend time reflecting on my life -Winnie Mandela’s death has reminded me of my mortality and my purposes in life If i’m fortunate enough to live 81 years i want it to be said of me that i was a kind, generous and honest human being who tried to make a difference, change perceptions about the differently-abled and live courageously. 

Yesterday I was shocked and deeply saddened to hear that a legendary anti-apartheid activist and one of South Africa’s heroines Winnie Mandela had passed away. . Thank you Mama for the endless sacrifices you have made for our beloved South Africa I feel like your strength and fearlessness is in every South African women we are your legacy and we will honour that. We LOVE YOU . Rest in peace Warrior you did more than your part
