Mandela: Was Trained & Protected By H.I.M Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia
Nelson Mandela’s guerrilla war training in Ethiopia
As Mr Mandela left Ethiopia, Gen Tadesse presented him with a pistol and 200 rounds of ammunition – a gun that is thought to be buried somewhere on Lillesleaf Farm, where in 1963 other ANC leaders were arrested and sentenced to life alongside Mr Mandela in the famous Rivionia trial.
