The City of Johannesburg Council will have a Special Council Meeting to honour Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela as the Freeman of the City of Johannesburg.
The Freedom of the City is the highest recognition a City can pay to acknowledge a person’s contribution to the welfare of the city and its inhabitants.
The Conferment of Freedom of the City to exceptional individuals is not a decision that is taken lightly by the City of Johannesburg and Tata Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela received this honour in 2004.
A Special Council Meeting will be held as follows:
DATE: Monday, 09 December 2013
TIME: 11:00
VENUE: Council Chamber, Metro Centre
