“When the doctors told us I think Thursday morning...that there was nothing that they could do, and said to me ‘Maki call everybody that is here that wants to see him and say bye bye', it was a most wonderful day for us because the grandchildren were there, we were there,” Makaziwe said.
She also paid tribute to the doctors for the 24-hour care.
“It was like there were soldiers guarding this period of the king - yes my father comes from royalty - without them knowing they were actually practising our rituals and culture, they were there in silence and when we as family members come in they would excuse themselves and just a few of them would be there to give us the time to be around my dad's bed,” she was quoted as saying.
