Nelson Mandela Bay (Port Elizabeth • Uitenhage • Despatch)
There is a city in Africa named for the love of a woman. She never visited this city, nor ever knew it. Elizabeth Donkin enjoyed romance and love in a marriage – rare in an age of dowries and heritage – but died in India after childbirth. Her devastated husband, Sir Rufane Donkin, returned to England with her embalmed heart and baby son. Assigned to Algoa Bay in 1820, he erected a memorial to his late wife and named the site “Port Elizabeth”.
This tradition of love is continued today under a broader title : Nelson Mandela Bay. The name is borrowed from South Africa’s favourite son; Nelson Mandela, a political prisoner who became a president, a man whose love for South Africa brought her a new democracy and hope.
