@spearhead_af: Nelson Mandela On Nigeria's Financial And Material Support Of South Africa’s Anti-Apartheid Struggle In this address, delivered during his May 1990 visit to Nigeria – 3 months after his release from captivity at the hands of South Africa’s apartheid regime, and 4 years before his election as the country’s first democratically-elected President – former South African President, Nelson Mendela, praises Nigeria’s unwavering support of his country’s anti-apartheid struggle. His words, heard today, speak to just how far the “Giant of Africa” has fallen. Now led by a full-throated Western puppet government which continues to embarrass the entire continent and impoverish its people more and more every day, Nigeria is a shadow of its former self. But Mandela’s words speak to another truth: just like the freedom of South Africa’s African majority, what was once lost can be reclaimed, if it is fought for. #Nigeria #SouthAfrica
