Walter Sisulu

Walter Sisulu was buried in South Africa today.

He died on 5 May at his home in Johannesburg, two weeks before his 91st birthday, in the arms of his wife Albertina. In this he was blessed!

The world has lost a truly moral man, gentle, intelligent, loved, self-disciplined, a true leader!

One who refused to accept the powers of government when he could have taken as much as he wanted without opposition.

Thank you for all you did for South Africa, which is more than most people will ever realise.

Thank you for being the man you were.

Today, the world is black, green and yellow.

Rest in peace, Walter Sisulu.
