DSTV celebrates Mandela at 100 with pop-up channel

   

Were he to still be alive, global icon and father of modern Souh Africa, Nelson Mandela, would have be 100 years old on Wednesday, July 18, 2018.

However, in recognition of the statesman and Nobel Peace Prize winner, DSTV will launch a special five-day long pop-up channel available to all customers to celebrate and honour the life and legacy of Tata Madiba on the 18th of July.

Starting on Madiba’s birthday, July 18, at 6 pm, the channel will feature a mix of films, documentaries and archive footage.

“Around the globe, Nelson Mandela is revered as a hero of the struggle and as the man who led South Africa to democracy,” said Yolisa Phahle, General Entertainment CEO, MultiChoice.
