| [Emirates 24/7] Former South African President Nelson Mandela left hospital on Friday after treatment for an acute respiratory infection, officials said. Mandela, 92, was admitted on Wednesday, prompting fears for the anti-apartheid icon who led South Africa as its first black president and is revered at home and abroad as a symbol of reconciliation and hope. "Madiba is well," Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe said, using Mandela's clan name. "He is fine. He's OK. He is in good spirits. He was joking with us," said Motlanthe. South Africa's surgeon general told the same news conference Mandela was stable and was discharged after treatment for an acute respiratory infection. "There is no need to panic or to try to see more in what we are saying. For a 92-year-old, he surprises us on a daily basis on his power of recovery," Vejayanand Ramlakan said. |
