Nelson Mandela's Daughter Updates on His Health: 'It Doesn't Look Good'

Posted on 07:10 by Unknown

A day after there were reports that the former president of South Africa was placed on life support, there's news today that Nelson Mandela's health has taken a sharp turn for the worst. "I won't lie, it doesn't look good," said Mandela's daughter Makaziwe, after visit to his Pretoria hospital Thursday morning. "But as I say, if we speak to him, he responds and tries to open his eyes. He's still there. He might be waning off, but he's still there," she said in a radio interview with SABC.

South African President Jacob Zuma has cleared his schedule today and canceled a meeting in Mozambique, Reuters reported. "Over the past 48 hours, the condition of former president Madiba has gone down," presidential spokesman Mac Maharaj said.
President Obama arrived on the continent on Wednesday for a week-long trip with his family in sub-Saharan Africa starting in Senegal. Obama issued a brief statement regarding Mandela on Thursday: 
POTUS: "Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of South Africa .. and the Mandela family. ... He's a personal hero."
