Nozamo Winnie Mandela was an energetic, warmly and defiant individual who stuck her life on the line to free her ex and shamefully Nelson Mandela chickened out by divorcing her. Nozamo Winnie Mandela is my queen, who didn’t give up her fight for her husband to be freed. Not only an attractive queen, but solid one too. RIP Nozamo Winnie Mandela
But in all seriousness, marriage is factor in one’s political career. It’s better to have no partner at all, than a legal partner that would put both your and their political reputation on the line.
It makes sense beyond South Africa very few knew who she was. While applauding Mandela greatly… And the fact she didn’t have any *real* power doesn’t help her case. She wasn’t a *Cleopatra* , *Aelia Eudoxia* , *Aelia Petra* , *Zenobia Odenathus* , *Catherine The Great* , *Irene I* , *Elizabeth I* , *Theodora II* , *Anna Komnena* , *Boudicca* , *Eleanor of Aquitaine* , *Maeve of Connacht* , *Margaret Tatcher* , *Harriet Tubman* or *Joan of Arc* . Women who’s deeds were independent from their male counter-parts lives. Neither a *Rosa Parks* She was just another person who played a close part in Mandela’s life. Whether be it a thorn or a flower.
I dont care what her past mistakes of cheating, without Mama Winnie we shouldn't have this freedom we have today. She sapose to be the president of this Country
I don’t think Nozamo Winnie Mandela was that type to be dishonest, because she was so lonely without Nelson plus these demons made sure that they would destroy the Mandelas.
So he divorced his wife because of the pressure he felt from his ANC colleagues 🙄. A wife that you left for 27 years and still stood by your side regardless of the struggle she was going through. The main point was to separate the two of them and he eventually gave in to that plan. How disappointing
Vusumzi, Who on earth would wait for 27 yrs without companion, tshin’thiza. Inkanuko zomzimba,, hehake! A lot of white South African are always yelling :”Winnie cheated & killed Stompie. Winnie was not even 30yrs when Mandela was sent to prison. Hay’basile abantu. Nithetha ingathi anibatywa😂😂
@@alibyrne7112 I don’t get it, she did cheat tho. She was fed up of Mandela and cheated.😂😂 Maybe she didn’t know marriage factored in success of political careers? Especially after the fact Mandela got out of prison…
It's always a woman hating campaign, wasnt Mandela a known womanizer? Imagine blaming winnie, her ex husband was given life imprisonment and she lost her jobs because of her affiliations with him... What did you expect? Why did Nelson and Evelyn divorce if he was such a saint???
It was a whirlwind romance, a fairy tale... Unfortunately their country came between them and they had to fall on their swords for the sake of the struggle.
You have no respect for calling him "Mandiba" 😒 Mama Winnie suffered so much at the hands of the oppressors, raising two kids, being a mother of the community without her companion. Yet she was judged so much even for things she had no control over.
@@kamochill She could have easily divorce and move on. But to retain Mandela's name while sleeping with another man was beyond what Mandela could handle. And to add salt to the injury, she continue seeing the guy when Madiba regained freedom, no man can handle such insult. Great woman for fighting equality and representing her community in SA, but not Mandela. If she respect him, she could have paused and accorded the old man the respect he deserve. She can't be riding and parading with him while sneaking to f**k some dude elsewhere.
@@afolabitoye4393 You clearly do not understand politics, had you understood from the onset you would understand how it was a political move for Tata to divorce his wife he CLEARLY loved till the day of his last breath and not some affair Winnie had. The media has painted that poor woman as this bad omen to the world, trying to remove her phenomenal bravery in liberating this country. Thank you for your time, I am done.
The spin on Mandela was that he was sentenced to 27 years for his resistance to state tyranny. Umkhonto we Sizwe, terrorist wing of the African National Congress and the South African Communist Party. Head of this terrorist wing. Plead guilty to 156 acts of terrorism including planting of bombs in public places. He was head of this terrorist wing for 2 eyars befroe he was arrested in 1962. This terrorist organization then went on to plant bombs in various places, including in churches and was responsible for many deaths to men, women, and children. These were people murdered by the organization that Mandela was the head of. Mandela never renounced the violence or condemned it. Any government in the world would have locked him up. He was put in jail for ordering these bombings. He was found with 50,000 landmines which had been sent to him by the communist government in Russia. President Botha visited Mandela and offered to release him if he would renounce the violence and bombings. Mandela refused. When he became President of South Africa. He purchased massive amounts of weaponry. He also became cozy with other violent dictators around the world, including Qaddafi in Libya and Castro in Cuba. We know that communism in the 20th century was responsible for far more deaths than even the Nazis. Just one example, we know there 70 million people slaughtered in Russia alone. A pattern which we saw over and over again regarding communism. Just execute anyone who can read, or is outspoken, and happens to disagree with the communists. Mao Tse Tung in China. Castro, Stalin, Phnom Penn in Cambodia... Mandela. Today, the majority of South Africans, including blacks say they were better off under the apartheid government. Police and government corruption is rampant. Transparency International released it's 2013 report on government corruption and rated the current South African government as the highest, most corrupt in the world. South Africa now averages 59 murders daily. This amounts to about 1 murder per 2,413 every year! This easily makes it the most violent country in the world. Rape and gang-rape in South Africa are also the highest in the world. Part of the reason for this is the ridiculous myth propagandized by "witch doctor" types who tell people that having sex with a virgin is a cure for Aids. Predictably, this has led to an increase in Aids. Today, 12% of South African citizens are H.I.V. positive. The ANC government has done nothing to stop the pandemic. Moreover, poverty amongst both whites and blacks has increased dramatically since the ANC took over in 1994. Fortunately, the Apartheid government had enough sense to destroy it's nuclear arsenal before leaving office. The current post-Apartheid government and 80% majority black population is also arguably the most xenophobic in the world. In a 2006, a survey by the South African Migration Project found that South Africans are more opposed to immigration than anywhere else in the world. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in 2008 reported over 200,000 refugees applied for asylum in South Africa, almost four times as many as the year before. These people were mainly from Zimbabwe, though many also come from Burundi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, Eritrea, Ethiopia and Somalia. Competition over jobs, business opportunities, public services and housing has led to tension between refugees and host communities. Mandela's second wife, Winnie, was about the most evil person one could imagine. She was convicted of the torture and murder of a 14 year old boy whom she accused of being an informant. She was also a big fan of what is called "necklacing." A practice in which a person is wrapped in barbed-wire, place a tire over the shoulders so they can't move, the pour gasoline into the rim of the tire and set fire to it. This was who Nelson chose to marry. We can only guess that her sick violence was only part of the atrtaction. Nelson knew these things about her when he married her. The truth just is... what it is. If everyone in a whole room believed with all their heart and soul that a pen is actually a television, that wouldn't make it one. It would still be a pen. Likewise, if everyone in a whole room believed with all their heart and soul that Mandela was a hero, that wouldn't make him one. He would still be a murdering terrorist. The truth isn't black or white. It isn't left, or right. It isn't liberal or conservative. The truth is still the truth even when it doesn't support someone's previously "DESIRED" conclusions. The truth is still the truth even when it makes people angry. And the truth is, Mandela was a murdering terrorist.
@Be Frank I'm sure it is, especially when you come from a privileged background, it's entertaining to watch the animals wipe each other out, right... Why do you choose to be hateful, what does that do for you?
