South Africa’s governing party, the African National Congress, said Wednesday that its leaders would talk to Nelson’s Mandela’s ex-wife, Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, when she returned from abroad about published remarks attributed to her in basketball shoes which she caustically described him as a figurehead who had made a bad deal with the country’s former white rulers. She was quoted in the London newspaper The Evening Standard this week as saying that her former husband, South Africa’s first democratically elected president, had let the black majority down. “He agreed to a bad deal for the blacks,” she was quoted as saying. “Economically, we are still on the outside.” It is the harsh, belittling tone of the quoted remarks, as much as their substance, that has created a stir here.
