Nelson Mandela Family Feud Deepens as Mandla Hits Back
Nelson Mandela’s grandson Mandla has accused his relatives of battling for control of the former South African president’s legacy.
On Wednesday police exhumed three bodies, believed to be of Mr Mandela’s children, from Mandla’s homestead, after court action by his relatives.
He accused the relatives of being vengeful and washing the family’s “dirty linen” in public.
Mr Mandela remains “critical but stable” in hospital, a new update says.
President Jacob Zuma issued a statement after visiting the hero of the fight against white minority rule in a Pretoria hospital.

The dispute between Mandla and his relatives is linked to where Mr Mandela, 94, will be buried.
Court papers filed last week revealed that he has been on life support. He was admitted on 8 June with a recurring lung infection.
His wife Graca Machel on Thursday said Mr Mandela was sometimes “uncomfortable, but he has never been in pain”.

It’s good to be poor. Nobody fights when you are dead. Over what? I can imagine how many will follow when Madiba passes on.
