One of the world's greatest statesmen, anti-apartheid activist and the first democratically elected president of South Africa - President Nelson Mandela, 93, has been honoured by his countrymen with his image on the country's bank notes.
His face repaces designs featuring the "big five" safari animals - Cape buffalo, elephant, leopard, lion and rhino. All five notes - 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 rand will now bear Mandela's face on the front.
What a way to honour him and thank God he's still alive to see it!

OMG! Whitney Houston dies at 48
21:39 |
Such a sad sad sad day. Whitney Houston, one of the best singers the world ever saw, is dead. She died this afternoon Saturday February 11th, 2012. She was 48 years old.
The singer was staying at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in California preparing to go to Clive Davis pre-grammy party before she was found dead.
No one knows exactly what killed her, but some media houses are saying suicide, others - drug overdoes. So so so sad! Was hoping she would one day overcome the drug addiction...
Goodbye to the greatest voice of all time. Sleep well, Whitney! So so sad...
