I’m twenty minutes late by the British clock but Happy Birthday Nelson Mandela, you terrorist, ex-terrorist, you.

Nailed him, but good. Whatever happened to Winnie?

Nomzamo has, since her original conviction for kidnapping in 1991, been found guilty on dozens of charges of fraud and theft, split up with Nelson, apologised to the nation for her love of petrol and necklaces, and subsequently been re-elected to the ANC’s National Executive Committee. I heard somewhere that an opera based on her life exists, although it probably hasn’t been performed in South Africa.
I have no idea if she is, or ever was, on the US ‘terror list’. Not having a copy of it, I’ll have to wait until it gets published in the ‘Births, Deaths, Marriages’ section of the local newspaper. You could have the name of the alleged miscreant, followed by a reason for the listing, and a trial date. They’d read something like this:
Name: Muhammad Padillo
Case Type: see above
Case No: 250 871 444
Action: job done
