I believe the answer is:

mandela

(Other definitions for mandela that I've seen before include "Nelson . . . . . . ., great African statesman (7)" , "South African president, 1994-99" , "Could be Nelson" , "Former president of South Africa" , "South African political hero" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
