Almost 30 years later, President Cyril Ramaphosa received the same honour on Monday evening at the same university, something he says “is the greatest honour”.

It was in 1992 that the late former president Nelson Mandela had an honorary doctorate conferred on him by the University Cheikh Anta Diop in Dakar, Senegal.

Ramaphosa said: “I accept this honour on behalf of people of SA, who have entrusted me with the responsibility of being their president.”“Twenty-nine years ago, this university recognised the founding father of our nation, President Nelson Mandela, with the same doctorate that I am receiving today. What an honour for me to receive exactly what he received.”

He said in 1992, Mandela visited the same university, “from a SA where our people were still in bondage and chains under the jackboot of apartheid”.
