A statue of Nelson
Mandela, South Africa's first black president, has been unveiled in the
capital, Pretoria, a day after he was buried.
The nine-metre (30ft) bronze statue has been erected at the Union Buildings, the government headquarters.
The statue, with Mr Mandela's hands reaching outward, was intended to show that he had embraced the whole nation, President Jacob Zuma said.
