Zuma vows to continue Mandela's legacy

Zuma vows to continue Mandela's legacy | News | National | Mail & Guardian: "As the world bid Nelson Mandela farewell on Sunday, President Jacob Zuma vowed to carry on his legacy of reconciliation.

"One thing we can assure you as you take your final step, is that South Africa will continue to do [what you wished for]. We will not rest until the majority [of our people] benefit from the fruits of freedom you fought for so hard," said Zuma who has been under pressure to step down because he failed to live up to Madiba's legacy.

Delivering his eulogy at Mandela funeral in Qunu on Sunday, Zuma said: "We will continue to work hard to reduce unemployment and inequality, create decent jobs and [an] accountable public service. We pledge today to continue promoting non-racialism and tolerance in our country and to build a South Africa that truly belongs to all. "
