Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela

Source: Wikipedia

Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela (also known as Madiba), a South African anti-apartheid

revolutionary and politician who served as President of South Africa from 1994 to
1999, was the first black South African to hold the office, and the first elected in a
fully representative, multiracial election.

Mandela was born to the Thembu royal family. He attended Fort Hare University and
the University of Witwatersrand where he studied law. After the Afrikaner
nationalists of the National Party came to power in 1948 and began implementing the
policy of apartheid, a system of racial segregation, he rose to prominence in
the African National Congress's 1952 Defiance Campaign. Working as a lawyer, he
was repeatedly arrested for seditious activities and, with the ANC leadership, was
prosecuted in the Treason Trial from 1956 to 1961 but was found not guilty. Although
initially committed to non-violent protest, he was arrested in 1962, convicted of
sabotage and conspiracy to overthrow the government, and sentenced to life
imprisonment in the Rivonia Trial.

An international campaign lobbied for his release, which was granted in 1990 after 27
years of imprisonment. Becoming ANC President, Mandela led negotiations with
President F.W. de Klerk to abolish apartheid and establish multiracial elections in
1994, in which he led the ANC to victory. He was elected President and formed the
Government of National Unity. As President, he established a new constitution and
initiated the Truth and Reconciliation Commission to investigate past human rights
abuses, while introducing policies to encourage land reform, combat poverty, and
expand healthcare services.

After suffering from a prolonged respiratory infection, Mandela died on 5 December

2013 at the age of 95, at around 20:50 local time at his home in Houghton,
Johannesburg, surrounded by his family.
