President Thabo Mbeki's Happy Birthday Message to Former President Nelson Mandela

President Thabo Mbeki and Mrs Zanele Mbeki have extended a happy birthday message to former President Nelson Mandela on his 88th birthday.

President Mbeki expressed the wish that Madiba lives long enough to see the full bloom of our nation as it continues to regenerate itself into a peaceful, prosperous and united people, at peace with itself and its neighbours.

The President added that Madiba's life was exemplary and will perhaps pass as one amongst the rare models of a true South African.
