Nelson Mandela Left Estate Worth $4m






South Africa’s former President Nelson Mandela left an estate valued at more than 46m rand ($4.13m; £2.53m), the executors of his will have revealed.
The Mandela family trust will receive $130,000, plus royalties. Mr Mandela’s third wife, Graca Machel, was likely to waive her claims to the estate, the executors said, although she is entitled to half of it.
The former president left behind an estate that includes an upmarket house in Johannesburg, a modest dwelling in his rural Eastern Cape home province and royalties from book sales, including his autobiography Long Walk to Freedom.
Some of the estate would be split between three trusts set up by Mr Mandela, including a family trust designed to provide for his more than 30 children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The family trust will receive 1.5m rand, plus royalties.
Schools the former president attended are due to receive 100,000 rand each, as are Wits and Fort Hare Universities, for bursaries and scholarships.
The ANC (African National Congress) will also receive some royalties, to be used at the discretion of the party’s executive committee, to spread information about the party’s principles and policies, particularly concerning reconciliation.
Mr Mandela’s children each received loans worth $300,000 during his lifetime and will have that debt scrapped if it has not been repaid.
Close personal staff, including long-time personal aide Zelda la Grange, each get 50,000 rand.
Mr Mandela died in December, aged 95. His will was first written in 2004 and last amended in 2008.
