Nelson Mandela's legacy scattered

In this world throughout history, individuals had to pay a personal price and had to suffer to set others free.

Moses to free his people, Joseph as Prime Minister of the Pharao to rescue Egyptians, Jesus Christ on the cross Jeanne D'Arc her French people, Martin Luther believers around the world, Abraham Lincoln Blacks in the USA, Gandhi liberating India from the hands of the British Empire, etc. Nations do the best they can do to honor the legacy left behind.

Nelson Mandela of South Africa suffered for 27 years in prison on Robbin Island to end apartheid and create a model hero in the Rainbow Nation of South Africa. It was not his mandate to find the best economic, political, and constitutional way forward, especially for the underprivileged black majority. His successors Mbeki, Jacob Zuma, and Cyril Ramaphose did little to help the people to live a better life but took great care of their private bank accounts.

Johannesburg got the name "The Murder City". Out of despair and frustration with an unemployment rate of 45% with no hope of a better future anytime soon most young blacks take to killing, stealing, and kidnapping. They raise the question and concern now as they have all the legal rights like the white rich minority they are still going hungry to bed at night.

As many white South Africans sell off their farms and other properties at bargain prices before they will be worthless fearing racial clashes poorer Blacks get worried about their chance of survival. The old debate of races which one is better than the other one gets unfortunately increased momentum. Equal rights never feed empty stomachs.

The ANC the party of Nelson Mandela has taken his legacy to pieces. Not like other African nations in desperate turmoil when the time of uprising is coming history will be questioned again and it will have a significant impact on the face of the African continent. Unlike West, East, or Middle Africa South Africans are trapped in their corner too far to reach Arabia, Asia, or Europe.

In History, people who sacrificed for their people during their lifetime do not get the honor they deserve if at all mostly decades after their demise. As angles in heaven what to do with it?
