YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

African Union Commission Chairwoman Nkosazana DlaminiZuma, the first woman to lead the organization, spoke at the memorial service for Nelson Mandela. She is a former antiapartheid activist who served as South Africa's Minister of Health from 1994 to 1999, under President Mandela. She recalled how Mandela was part of a broader PanAfrican struggle for independence. "Wherever he went on our continent, doors were opened, he got military training and he got support for the struggle," she said.
