Winnie Mandela

“Winnie Madikizela-Mandela (born 26 September 1936 as Nomzamo Winifred Zanyiwe Madikizela) is a South African politician who has held several government positions and headed the African National Congress Women’s League. She is currently a member of the ANC’s National Executive Committee. Although still married to Nelson Mandela at the time of his becoming president of South Africa in May 1994, she was never the first lady of South Africa, as the couple had separated two years earlier after revelations that Winnie had been unfaithful after Nelson’s release from prison in February 1990. The final divorce went through on 19 March 1996.”
