Mandela Memorial: Your Reaction
Surrounding the Mandela memorial service there are many controversies: booing Jacob Zuma; the Obama-Castro handshake; and Netanyahu's absence.
On the day of Nelson Mandelaβs memorial service at the FNB stadium in Johannesburg, we listen to reactions from inside and outside South Africa.
President Jacob Zuma was massively booed before his speech β was this a disgrace or democracy in action? What did you make of Barack Obamaβs speech saying βhe made me want to be a better manβ, and his handshake with Raul Castro? Also, why was Netanyahu absent?
