Nelson Mandela leaves half of his $4.1m estate to 3rd wife & nothing to Winnie Mandela( See Full Details Of His Will)

Nelson Mandela's ex-wife Winnie Madikizela-Mandela has been left out of his will, it has been revealed.
The former South African president has divided up his £2.5million estate between family members, staff and the ruling African National Congress.
However, he has chosen to give nothing to Ms Madikizela-Mandela - his second wife, with whom he had two daughters, Zenani and Zindziswa. Meanwhile, his third wife, Graca Machel, has been named as the main beneficiary of the will because their marriage was 'in community of property', according to executor, Deputy Chief Justice Dikgang Moseneke.


She is therefore entitled to 50 per cent of his estate, which has been provisionally valued at 46 million rand (£2.5million), excluding royalties.But it is believed to have been accepted by his family with no contest so far.
As the main beneficiary, Ms Machel must claim her half of the estate within 90 days, said Moseneke, who was joined by executors George Bizos, a human rights lawyer who was a longtime friend of Mandela, and Themba Sangoni, a chief judge from the Eastern Cape province.
He added that although Madikizela-Mandela was not mentioned in the will, her grandchildren will each receive $9,000 (£5,500).
