Moroccan Soccer Fans Rebuke Mandela's Grandson Over Western Sahara Comments

The anti-Moroccan speech delivered by the grandson of former South African President Nelson Mandela during the opening of the African Nations Championship (CHAN) in Algeria in favor of "the liberation of the Sahara" continues to provoke reactions in Morocco.

Reacting to Zwelivelile Mandela’s violent call against Morocco, the "Curva Sud" ultra group, a supporter of the Raja club, took advantage of the match between the Casablanca club and MC Oujda which took place at the Mohammed V complex in Casablanca to respond to Nelson Mandela’s grandson. It reminded him through a banner that the only colony in Africa is Orania. "Little Mandela, the only colony in Africa, is located in Orania," which means in French: "Little Mandela, the only colony in Africa is Orania (in South Africa)". These supporters thus referred to the small town called "Orania", located in an isolated area in the center of South Africa and which has about 2,500 inhabitants, all of them white.

The "Curva Sud" ultra group advises Nelson Mandela’s grandson not to use his grandfather’s name and reputation to attack Morocco. Algeria would have asked him to call for the liberation of the Sahara against $100,000.
