So painful!! South African athlete dies while climbing mount kilimanjaro


A South African trying to summit Kenya’s Mount Kilimanjaro to mark Mandela Day has died.

A statement from the Nelson Mandela Foundation said details are “sketchy” but that it appeared Gugu Zulu had problems breathing early Monday as his group tried to reach Africa’s highest peak.

“We are informed that the medical teams tried everything possible to save his life” as they tried to descend, the statement said.



The foundation said the athlete was part of a Trek4Mandela team hoping to summit to mark Mandela’s birthday, a day of volunteer service in South Africa. Authorities said they were climbing in support of girls from disadvantaged communities.

In his last Facebook post, Gugu Zulu on Saturday said, “Am having flu like symptoms and struggling with the mountain but taking it step by step!! Today we managed to see our destination and our camp is literary above the clouds!!”



He was hiking with his wife, Letshego, who descended the 5,895-meter (19,340-foot) mountain with him, the foundation said.

You see, even the rest of the world acknowledge that the Mountain really rightfully belongs to Kenya. Blunders were made during the partitioning, the creation of the boundaries betwn these two countries in which the mountain was wrongfully handed to Tanzania. Tanzanians ought to do the needful, to cede the mountain and the surrounding regions and hand it back to its rightful owner, Kenya.

Ndio mlima upo Kenya. .....
Tunaumiliki watanzania mlima wa watu wa Kenya. ......
Ata lingeandika gazzete la wapi halibadili ukweli na ukweli utabaki mlima sio wa Kenya endeleeni kujipa Moro
 
naunga mkono hoja...mlima na mkoa wake vipelekwe kenya

hakuna namna maana huu ni mkoa wa watu wezi, mafisadi na vibaka wa hatari kwa taifa letu
 
Me kwetu moshi sina tabia za kikenya
 
Even the pipo living within the environs are kenyans in character. You ought to give the mountain, plus the surrounding regions back to Kenya.

Hata Masai Mara tutaichukua. Nyie mjidai wajuaji
