THE FATHER OF OUR NATION BORE NO GRUDGES AND ENMITY FOR HIS PERSECUTORS DESPITE HAVING GOOD REASON TO DO SO. HIS MISSION WAS TO UNITE THE CITIZENS OF OUR GORGEOUS AND STUNNING COUNTRY AND HIS FERVOUR WAS TO PREVENT DOMINATION OF ANY GROUP(S) OVER THE OTHER(S). BELOW ARE EDITED AND SELECTED EXCERPTS FROM MADIBA'S SPEECH ON THE OCCASION OF HIS 90TH BIRTHDAY:
"I thank the ANC for organising this rally to celebrate our 90th birthday. I ask you today: do not celebrate an individual. Celebrate and reaffirm the principle of collective leadership and inclusiveness. Let no individual, section, faction or group ever regard itself as greater than the common good of all our people. Celebrate the promotion of unity, amongst our allies, in the nation at large and amongst all our people. Our nation comes from a history of deep division and strife; let us never through our deeds or words take our people back down that road. Celebrate our tradition of open debate, criticism, discussion and respect for democracy. We fought hard and sacrificed much for this democracy. Protect, defend, consolidate and advance democracy – within the organisation and in national life. Let us give the lead in demonstrating our respect for the institutions of our democracy - both in our actions and words. Celebrate and reaffirm our fundamental commitment to creating a better life for all, particularly the poor and marginalized. Poverty and deprivation in our midst demean all of us. Let us mobilise in one great co-operative national effort the enormous energy of our society in order to overcome and eliminate poverty. We came together as a nation to end the scourge of apartheid. Today we are challenged to end poverty and all its attendant suffering.
Celebrate the nobility of our ideals of creating a non-racial and non-sexist society. Let us redouble our efforts to fully realise the ideal of a democratic state and society that secures to all their birthright without distinction of colour, race, sex or belief. Let us live that non-racialism and non-sexism in our every day, deed and word.
Now – as much as ever in our history – we require disciplined leaders and members with respect for their organisation, who care equally for all South Africans and for all people who live within our borders. Let there be peace and friendship.
I wish you well. I thank you once more".
