The truth is that Nelson Mandela was the first Black President of South Africa and he was one of the most instrumental figures that helped to end apartheid in South Africa.

The difference between most of African leaders and Great leaders unlike Mandela is that the their vision in politics means thinking about having a big house, a big car and lots of possessions; while Mandela vision means change for people, even if change is uncomfortable or outright painful as long it makes difference for the benefit of all stood for that.
