Former South African President, Nelson Mandela, is “sitting up and looking around” almost a month after being discharged from hospital, his grandson told a local newspaper, The New Age, on Thursday.
Mbuso Mandela said his grandfather was able to spend time with his children and grandchildren.
Mbuso said: “I just saw him again on Wednesday at lunch.
“He is doing very well.
“He is sitting up and looking around.
“We are keeping him company.”
The 95-year-old statesman and global icon was discharged from hospital on September 1, after spending almost three months at the Medi-Clinic Heart Hospital in Pretoria for a recurring lung infection.
