Even after being imprisoned for 27 years, he finally regained his freedom and became a president and a hero admired by the people, but he lost the woman he loved the most in his life—the long-term separation and political persecution, which widened the distance between the two husbands and wives Far away, when Mandela preached the idea of peace and tolerance, Winnie declared war with hatred.
