PHOTOS: The Giant Arena In Mandela's Back Yard That Will House The Biggest Funeral In History


A giant arena is being built to stage the biggest funeral in South Africa's history in honour of Nelson Mandela.
Presdient Goodluck Jonathan, Barak Obama, Cuban leader Raul Castro and Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe are among more than 70 world leaders flying to South Africa this week to attend a series of events to mark the extraordinary life of humanity's great peacemakers.
The event is set to be one of the biggest meetings of global dignitaries in recent history at Johannesburg's Soccer City stadium, South Africa's foreign ministry said today.
The 95,000-seat stadium in Soweto, the township that was at the heart of the anti-apartheid struggle, will host the main memorial ceremony for Mandela, who died on Thursday aged 95.

    keep up the good work.
