nimekaribia umri ambao #madiba alikuwa nao wakati anawekwa gerezani.
writer and blogger nze sylva ifedigbo shared a post from his blog:

itakuwa safari ndefu kwa watawala wengi wa afrika kurithi tunu ya asili ya #madiba.
would b a "long walk" 4 many african leaders to "inherit" the values essence of #madiba.

madiba alisema katika safari yake ya mwisho kabisa ya kimataifa kule landani, uingereza, mwezi juni 2008:
madiba said on his last ever international visit in london, june 2008:

kwa miaka 16 iliyopita, raia wa afrika ya kusini wamekuwa wakisherehekea siku kuu hii ya kuzaliwa madiba kwa shauku na hamasa motomoto.
for the past 16 years, south africans have been celebrating madiba’s birthday with fervor and enthusiasm.

uamuzi ulifikiwa kwamba kusingekuwa na namna nyingine iliyo bora zaidi ya kusherehekea siku ya kuzaliwa madiba kila mwaka zaidi ya kuwa na siku ambayo itatengwa maalumu kumkumbuka kwa kazi aliyofanya maishani mwake na kwa shughuli za asasi yake ya hisani na kuhakikisha kwamba urithi aliotuachia unaendelea daima.
it was decided that there could be nothing more fitting than to celebrate madiba’s birthday each year with a day dedicated to his life’s work and that of his charitable organisations and to ensure his legacy continues forever.

kitu ambacho watu wengi hawajui ni kwamba madiba (kama ambavyo wengi wanapenda kumwita huko afrika ya kusini) alitumia miaka 67 ya maisha yake katika kupiga vita ubaguzi wa rangi na umaskini.
what most people don’t know is that madiba (as he is affectionately known in south africa) spent 67 years in the fight against racism and poverty.

madiba atacheza kwa mrindimo wa wimbo huu wa maombolezo, umeandikwa na mshairi wa ki-naijeriat, tosin gbogi, anapokaribia "lango la mbinguni":
madiba will dance to the cadence of this dirge, written by nigerian poet, tosin gbogi, as he approaches "heaven's gate":
