Africa’s living music legends pay homage to Mandela at Morocco festival

African superstars Johnny Clegg and Youssou N’Dour paid homage yesterday to late South African icon Nelson Mandela at the 20th edition of the World Festival of Sacred Music in Morocco.

The show in Fez, the spiritual capital of the North African nation, began with a reading of English poet William Ernest Henley’s “Invictus”, often recited by Mandela while imprisoned by the apartheid government.

Thousands of people broke into dance as South Africa’s Johnny Clegg, a musician internationally renowned as the “White Zulu” for mixing English and Zulu lyrics and rhythms, took to the stage.

“Thank you for this homage to a great man who played an important role in my life and in the world,” Clegg, 61, said in French, after belting out his hit 80s ode to Mandela “Asimbonanga” (We have not seen him).
