Well done, Mandela

Dear Editor,

This is my personal tribute to the courageous mountain-mover; the one who took up the mantle of the Good Samaritan -- Nelson Mandela.

He was the brave soldier; a real champion, genuine, faithful, tolerant, and courageous. He should go down into the Guinness record book as one of the best leaders and freedom fighters the world has seen.

He was not imposing in stature, but he was strikingly tallawah, with a big, brave heart. He was like a man who walked on a tightrope in ending apartheid in South Africa, so that blacks and whites could be united. He truly and wholeheartedly deserves all the credit, praise, honour, and resounding applause that has been showered on him.

The life of Nelson Mandela was fraught with demonstrations of humility, fate, patience, and hard work. A man who put his faith in action; a man who put his life on the line and has passed the hazardous test with flying colours.

He spent 27 years in prison and he did not kill anyone, while some who have their hands soaked in blood walk free.

Well done, Nelson Mandela, you have fought the good fight. It remains very hard to find a human being of your quality in these flying, fast-paced days.

May your soul rest in sweet, perfect peace.

Donald J Mckoy.
