The former South African President, Nelson Mandela, is being kept in hospital despite “looking much better”, according to the government.

Presidential spokesman Mac Maharaj said doctors treating the 94 year old are “in no hurry to send him home”.

Mr Mandela was admitted to hospital 12 days ago and has been treated for a lung infection and gallstones.

Doctors are satisfied with his progress but say he needs “extraordinary care” because of his age.

Mr Mandela led the struggle against white-minority rule before being elected the first black president in 1994.

He contracted tuberculosis while on the windswept Robben Island where he served 18 of the 27 years he was imprisoned for sabotage.

His lungs are said to have been damaged when he worked in a prison quarry.

My Observation: could this be a war between medical practise and reality? I do not wish Mandela's death but south Africans are kind of ready to "extend" Madiba's life span. What do you think?

He lived long enough let him go to heaven/hell or be reicarnated.
