MBOMBELA – Ehlanzeni District Municipality, in collaboration with the Moral Regeneration Movement closed Mandela Month in style last Thursday by hosting the “Nelson Mandela Memorial Lecture ” at the Disaster Management Centre.

Welcoming the delegates, the executive mayor, Cllr Letta Shongwe said,
“First of all, let me indicate that I feel honoured to be part of the 20 years of democracy that our late father of the nation, Tata Mandela fought for so that we can live a better life. The month to commemorate and to sustain the Mandela legacy is the first one to be held in the country after his departure in December last year and I’m very happy the way Mandela activities were run throughout the month. It shows that when we are united, we can make this world a better place and ensure that Mandela’s legacy stays forever.”
