Sexwale

His fellow freedom fighter and inmate Tokyo Sexwale recounted the story on the 2019 podcast “Dolly Parton’s America.”

When she asked which songs in particular, Sexwale answered, “He loved ‘Jolene,’ ” adding, “No human being cannot be affected by ‘Jolene.’

Many, including Sexwale, favor the latter: “We all don’t want to lose.”

Most — like Mr. Ramaphosa and Tokyo Sexwale, another anti-apartheid activist — were favorites of Mr. Mandela.

Panel chairman Tokyo Sexwale says his monitoring group will meet by the end of November.
