Former President Nelson Mandela’s family has hailed him as a man of principles to the end.

This as the world marks Madiba’s fifth anniversary of his death.

He died aged 95 in 2013 at his home in Johannesburg.

Mandela’s granddaughter Ndileka says her grandfather was a man of integrity. She says her granddad always stuck to his principles.

“He stuck to his principles even if he was criticised. If he felt that it resonates with his value systems of respect, peace and reconciliation, it did not matter what anybody said.”

“That’s the type of leader that we need,” says Ndileka.
