UNelson Mandela nomzukulwane wakhe omkhulu uZenani. Ukuchitha isikhathi nomndeni wakhe kwakubaluleke kakhulu kuNelson Mandela ngoba wayenqatshelwe ukuxhumana nabo isikhathi eside ngesikhathi eboshiwe.
Ngokudabukisayo, umndeni kaMandela waba nokulahlekelwa nokuhlupheka okuningi. UZenani owayesanda gubha iminyaka eyishumi nantathu ngo-2010 wabulawa emgwaqeni ngesikhathi ephuma ekhaya kusukela ekhonsathini yokuvula iNdebe yoMhlaba.
UZenani wachazwa ngokuthi "ingelosi ihambe ngokushesha" futhi "umsebe wokushisa kwelanga" owawuthanda ukupheka nokubeka izihloko zokuhle nobuhle.
“Impela siyinxanele imfundo futhi sicabanga ukuthi iyinto enhle. Kodwa awudingi ukuthi uze ube nemfundo ukwazi ukuthi ufuna amalungelo ayinhloko, unamaphupho, uyakwazi ukubeka okufunayo.” ~Nelson Mandela
