It’s been said that the biggest family fights occur during weddings and funerals.
But while the world prays for Nelson Mandela as he holds on to his life, his family is in court fighting…each other.
According to the Los Angeles Times, Mandela’s grandson, Mandela, was order to return the bodies of Nelson Mandela’s three dead children back to their original burial grounds.
In 2011, Mandela, the chief of Mvezo, dug up the bodies of the three children and moved them from Qunu to Mvezo where Nelson Mandela was born. While he may have been born there, Qunu is where Mandela was raised and where there is a family grave site. Mandela has always been very vocal about wanting to be buried near his children so the “hope” was that if his children’s bodies were buried in Mvezo, then so would Mandela and that would ultimately bring tourism dollars to the village.
