    Nelson #Mandela was one of the greatest leaders in history. He was a model for many of us. He fought for a fairer world. Madiba was a believer in #HealthForAll – his legacy gives us energy to work every day for a healthier, safer, fairer world. #MandelaDaypic.twitter.com/jvg7XMWJdf

        Nyerere, Kaunda, Machel and Mandela fought for freedom. We still need to continue our fight for our right to live free from disease and access to free heath for us all in Africa.

        I hope Ethiopian leaders will have the same experience as Madiba had by championing peace and reconciliation through maintaining national integrity.

        Yes. And he never visited Ethiopia because your tyrannical TPLF government and one party rule was against anything he stood for - a bunch of thieves and killers who looted the country, killed and displaced millions. You thank Mugabi for your position at #WHO
