Mandela's daughter: His legacy is about love

In an exclusive interview with ITV News, Nelson Mandela's daughter Zindzi said the outpouring of grief following his death reminds her "his legacy is about love".

Speaking to ITV News presenter Mark Austin, Zindzi Mandela continued: "His legacy is about selflessness, he has this unique ability to unite people behind him whether he is campaigning for a cause, whether he's sick in hospital.

"Even now that he's passed on, he still is uniting people behind him and his legacy. I think that's so incredible that someone can have a legacy that is so powerful, so strong, so consistent.

"I'm just hoping those are the values that people are going to want to take going forward in honouring him".
