As was announced today by his family, South Africa’s Former President Nelson Mandela is scheduled to attend the opening ceremonies of the World Cup this week. This means the world event has now become an even bigger one with the promise of an appearance of this great man who worked long and hard for his country’s unification, winning the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts. The World Cup symbolizes that courage, and so to have this global leader show up to start the event will mean, well, the world to the millions who admire Mandela. Although the Nelson Mandela Foundation said the great man will be appeared, this has been confirmed by Nkosi Zwelivelile Mandela today who told the press: “He will come and greet the fans… before he retires to his home. We’re trying to see how long he will stay at the stadium. At least 10 to 15 minutes.’ Since this South African icon is now 91, and since his appearances are not very frequent, all fans of football (both soccer and American) and all fans of civil rights should be sure to put their focus on Nelson Mandela as he greets the world at the opening ceremonies of this world-class event. Hopefully, the whole experience will mean a big boost to South African tourism as we start to watch the FIFA World Cup beginning Friday in Soccer City.

Mandela gives Bafana some Madiba magic Nelson Mandela donned the captain’s jersey on Thursday during a meeting with the national football team aimed at injecting them with a little of his Madiba magic.

In a statement, the foundation said the country’s first black president drew cheers and a song from the team when he arrived wearing a number 4 Bafana Bafana jersey. “Nelson Mandela there is no one like you,” they were reported to have sung. South Africa’s sports teams have often turned to Mandela for inspiration before a major tournament or game. The Springboks national rugby side credit him with inspiring them to a home victory over New Zealand in the 1995 World Cup, by showing immense enthusiasm for a sport once associated with the apartheid regime. The frail statesman, who played a central role in South Africa’s campaign to host the football World Cup, aims to do the same for Bafana Bafana, according to a report in Business Day newspaper. Mandela has requested tickets to the opening game next week between South Africa and Mexico, Sports Minister Makhenkesi Stofile told the paper. Mandela’s foundation, which represents the anti-apartheid icon, refused to confirm the report. “We don’t discuss Mr Mandela’s movements ahead of time because of security reasons,” Sello Hatang, spokesman for the foundation said.
