Nelson Mandela's family will decide nearer the time whether the ailing former South Africa president is well enough to make an appearance at Sunday`s World Cup final.


Information Communications Manager at the Nelson Mandela Foundation, Sello Hatang, said: "We reiterate that Mr. Mandela and his family will make the decision about whether he attends or not on the day."

Mandela had been due to attend the opening ceremony, but cancelled as the evening before his 13-year-old great-granddaughter died in a car crash

Local Organising Committee spokesman Jermaine Craig said an open invitation had been sent to the Mandelas, adding: "I can confirm that current president Jacob Zuma will attend Sunday`s occasion."
