Millions of South Africans today are laying to rest Winnie Mandela, anti-apartheid icon and Nelson Mandela’s former wife, with full state honours at a stadium funeral in Soweto, South Africa.

Winnie Madikizela-Mandela died April 2nd, 2018 in a Johannesburg hospital after a long illness. She was 81 years old.

Tens of thousands of mourners bursted into loud cheers as the casket carrying Winnie Mandela’s remains was wheeled into the Orlando Stadium, less than two kilometres from her home.

Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson, who also attended the funeral, said on Friday that Winnie Madikizela-Mandela was responsible for making the anti-apartheid movement “a global struggle”.

“She never stopped fighting. She never stopped serving,” he told reporters. “She never left the belly of the beast.”

Winnie Mandela’s casket draped with the multi-coloured South African flag was placed in the middle of the 37,500-seater stadium in front of a stage, decked in white and yellow flowers.

The emotionally charged official funeral began in Soweto, where she lived until her death on April 2, aged 81.

Winnie Madela will be buried as a national hero.
