Former South African President and anti-apartheid leader Nelson Mandela has spent a second night at home after being discharged from the hospital. Mandela, who is 95, had been hospitalized for 12 weeks with a recurrent lung infection. A spokesperson for South African President Jacob Zuma said Mandela’s recovery is ongoing.

Mac Maharaj: “Former President Nelson Mandela has this morning, Sunday the 1st of September, 2013, been discharged from Pretoria Hospital, where he has been receiving treatment. We would like to wish him all the best as he continues his recovery at his Johannesburg home. Madiba’s condition remains critical and is at times unstable. Nevertheless, his team of doctors is convinced that he will receive the same level of intensive care at his Houghton home as he received in Pretoria.”
