Cape Town – Former president Nelson Mandela will always be present in Steyn City, his widow Graça Machel said on Tuesday, as she commemorated a park dedicated to him in the newly launched, multi-billion rand Johannesburg estate.
Machel said that was because the hand of Madiba had planted the first tree on the land in 2007, the seeds of which she now used to continue that legacy.
“As I stand here, imagine a towering figure at my side and holding my hand,” she said. “That’s how I imagine Madiba amidst us today.”
