Thousands queue to view Madiba

Thousands queue to view Madiba - Gauteng | IOL News | IOL.co.za: "A winding queue formed outside the Union Buildings in Pretoria as people gathered to view the body of former president Nelson Mandela lying in state on Wednesday.

The queue was growing rapidly as members of the Tshwane metro police directed it.

Some people used umbrellas to shield themselves from the sun.

Political party T-shirts of the ANC and Agang SA were in evidence.

Tshepiso Matema said she had travelled from Soweto “to see history being made”.

“There is no other place to be besides the Union Buildings today, in the whole South Africa. We want to see our old man,” said Matema."
