Former President Mandela still remains in a critical but stable condition in hospital in Pretoria, and continues to show improvement, the Presidency said on Tuesday.
Madiba was admitted to Medi-Clinic Heart Hospital in the early hours on June 8 with a recurring lung infection.
His ambulance broke down on the way to the hospital, and he has had two “scares” and minor surgery.
Earlier this month Madiba spent his 95th birthday in hospital while visitors and well-wishers continued to leave flowers, cards and candles at the tribute wall outside the hospital.
