SA President calls for 'biggest Mandela Day ever'

South African President Jacob Zuma has called for the "biggest Mandela Day ever" to mark the 95th birthday of the former president on 18 July.

After his 90th birthday celebrations in London, Mandela called for people everywhere to help celebrate by doing 67 minutes of good work to represent the 67 years he spent campaigning.

Mr Zuma said: "We must all be planning what to do next month in marking our 67 minutes of doing good for humanity as called upon by Madiba to do so."
