South Africans must vote 'to honour Winnie Mandela’s sacrifice'
Updated | By Mmangaliso Khumalo
Zamaswazi Dlamini-Mandela, a granddaughter of the late Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, has urged South Africans to go to the polls in May and exercise their right to vote.

Dlamini-Mandela spoke on Tuesday morning at the sixth anniversary of the death of Madikizela-Mandela at Fourways Memorial Park.
In September, one of the busiest roads in the country, William Nicol Drive in Johannesburg, was renamed Winnie Madikizela-Mandela in commemoration of the 87th birthday of the struggle stalwart.
Dlamini-Mandela said that when going to vote, South Africans must remember the sacrifices that Madikizela-Mandela had to make alongside other struggle veterans.
“Those two important dates in our country are important for us as a family because our family was instrumental in ensuring that we can say there are 30 years of democracy, and we can go to the polls and vote. There have been a lot of conversations with my friends and family about what it means to have a vote and to make it count, and if I look around the room. I see so much representation of what 30 years ago would not have been here to vote.
“So, I think it is such a significant thing to be able to say my vote counts, whatever your vote is. As much as we are remembering my grandmother, I think it's important to remember what she did and what she sacrificed.”
