Executive Mayor’s Mandela Day message

CDM joins the international community and the country in commemorating Mandela Day, a Day which affords us an opportunity to honour Nelson Mandela’s legacy of selfless service to us all.

On the occasion of his 90th birthday in 2008, Madiba said “It is time for new hands to lift the burdens. It is in your hands now.” As CDM we have taken this message to heart to coordinate positive contributions for the welfare of our region through gestures of various kind. We therefore challenge everyone of us to reflect on Madiba’s legacy and lift the burden that vulnerable sections of our society face daily by lending a helping hand to them and restore faith in humanity. With that, we shall be keeping his legacy alive.

CDM therefore wishes you a fulfilling #MandelaDay.

Cllr John Mpe
