365Daily – Former American President, Barack Obama has joined other world leaders to mourn the late South African popular Clergy, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, describing him as a mentor and friend.

Eulogizing the late Nobel Prize winner for peace, who died on December 26, 2021, Obama said, “Archbishop Desmond Tutu was a mentor, a friend, and a moral compass for me and so many others.

“A universal spirit, Archbishop Tutu was grounded in the struggle for liberation and justice in his own country, but also concerned with injustice everywhere.

“He never lost his impish sense of humor and willingness to find humanity in his adversaries, and Michelle and I will miss him dearly.”
