Revolutionary and politician Nelson Mandela endured 27 years in prison before becoming South Africa's first president from 1994 to 1999.
Pretoria, South Africa (CNN) -- Former South African President Nelson Mandela remained hospitalized in critical condition Tuesday, a government spokesman said.
As night fell, well-wishers outside the Pretoria hospital where Mandela lay chanted his name, hung signs of support on bulletin boards and left flowers.
"We wish him well. We are calling on the world to unite and pray for Madiba," said 24-year-old Innocentia Moselane, using Mandela's traditional clan name. "He is our icon, and we love him."
