it's been an important speech for jacob zuma to deliver. of course you remember at the public memorial service he was booed. that's embarrassing, humiliating and took him and the other a.n.c. leaders by surprise. they had to go into the crowd and tell people to keep it down, and publicly reprimanded the crowd saying, "you must show respect." that is the freedom of expression and freedom of speech that nelson mandela went to prison for, being exercised against the party that he loved. this was on important speech for jacob zuma, and he did better. he sang, which the crowd loves, and was speaking more from the heart, more personally, which is what people want to hear from the president at this time, reassurance that the party of nelson mandela is in safe hands. however, outside of this arena and, you know, this week of remembering and celebrating, we know that the african national congress is in trouble. there are widespread allegations of corruption. jacob zuma has been facing difficulty on the spending of taxpayers' dollars on his home. the

jacob zuma singing that song at the beginning of his eulogy was making clear the context in which nelson mandela should be remembered along with all the greatness he has achieved. i'm joined here by the chief executor of the nelson mandela foundation, one of the legacy bodies of nelson mandela and of his name. firstly, you watched the funeral and saw the respect, the dignity. what went through your mind when you saw nelson mandela finally go? >> i think it was a fitting tribute to the life well-lived. i think south africans have this image that we shouldn't just be crying at this moment and mourning his passing, but we should be celebrating because madiba got 95 years, but he also gave 67 years of his life of service. then he retired three times, and i think those three retirements were preparing us for what was coming. even when it came, you still had the sense of loss, the deep sense of loss. we feel left with that. some of the staff members of the nelson mandela foundation have served nelson mandela for over 20 years. it's encouraging to them to see how they have pulled together in th

are leaving is because they just turned up to see obama, they did not really want to hear resident jacob zuma speak. the south african president is increasingly unpopular. >> behind you we can see the people leaving the stadium, and the mc of the ceremony today has scolded several times the crowd, asking them not to sing quite so loudly, to be disciplined, as mandela himself was disciplined. is that surprising at all? perhaps a little surprising, yes. people showed up here expecting a celebration of mandela's life, expecting music and something less dry than what has taken place. although they did receive the words of barack obama very well, generally speaking the ceremony is being considered a disappointment. brazil, thet of chinese president, all speakin
