5 reasons why we remember Nelson Mandela today.

1. He was a very well known anti-apartheid leader and then South Africa's first constitutionally elected president advocated equity and justice.

2. Mandela has won over 260 awards over 40 years, most prominently the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize

3. He spent 27 years in prison for his beliefs and actions, much of it in a cell on Robben Island

4. He was going through a lot which meant he was more compassionate than other world leaders. The greatest challenge Mr Mandela confronted as president was housing scarcity for the needy, and slum townships continued to torment major cities.

5. Finally, he gave us a lesson that will always be one of the main explanations to why we still remember him until today... Nelson Mandela traded his freedom for human rights, surrendering his freedom to make his country's people sleep in bed at night without worries. He has always become a champion of our society.
