                 I chose Nelson Mandela because I admire all the things his has done to society and gave a change to the world specifically to South Africa; He was a really good president and always thought in best for all. I admire Mandela because he never lost his faith in his self, and he always thought that he was going to advance still been in jail. I take all the things Mandela has don like a model for me to always improve and never surrender in life or look back.
Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela was born in Transkei, South Africa on July 18th , 1918.  His father was called Chief Henry Mandela. Nelson Mandela had his education in the University College of Fort Hare, the University of Witwatersrand, and qualified in law in 1942.However he  joined the African  National  Congress in  1944.After  years passed  there was a banning in the ANC on 1960, so Nelson Mandela argued for the setting up of a military wing within the ANC. In June 1961, the ANC executive considered his proposal on the use of violent tactics and agreed that those members who wished to involve themselves in Mandela's campaign would not be stopped from doing so by the ANC. Nelson Mandela was arrested in 1962, and sentenced for 5 years of prison. On February 11, 1990 Nelson Mandela was released. After he got out he started to do his life works. In 1991 Nelson Mandela was chosen to become de president of ACN. When he was in prison he was accepted as the most significant black leader in South Africa and became a potent symbol of resistance.
