New statue of Oliver Tambo unveiled in London

The wife of President Thabo Mbeki on Wednesday unveiled a new statue of anti-apartheid leader Oliver Tambo in the north London suburb where he was exiled for 30 years. Zanele Mbeki joined Britain’s Justice Secretary, Jack Straw, and other dignitaries to take the wraps off the bust in a park in Muswell Hill, near where Tambo lived from 1960 to 1990.
