Zindzi Mandela, youngest daughter of Nelson Mandela passes on at 59


Zindzi Mandela, youngest daughter of former South African President and liberation hero Nelson Mandela, has died.
The spokesman of the ruling African National Congress (ANC), Pule Mabe, announced the death on Monday.
Until her death, she was the South African ambassador to Denmark.
Zindzi Mandela, whose mother was anti-apartheid activist, Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, rose to international prominence when she read out Nelson Mandela’s rejection of then-president P.W. Botha’s offer for freedom in 1985.
State broadcaster SABC said the 59-year-old, died in a hospital in Johannesburg. The time of death could not be confirmed as at press time.
 “This is untimely; she still had a role to play in the transformation of our own society and a bigger role to play even in the African National Congress,’’ said Mabe.
He said that further details would be provided in due course.
