Johannesburg - Senior church leaders are expected to visit former president Nelson Mandela with his wife Graca Machel on Wednesday, Kairos Southern Africa said.

General secretary Reverend Edwin Arrison said the group would arrive at the Mediclinic Heart Hospital in Pretoria at 4pm.

It would release a statement on the visit shortly afterwards.

Mandela was admitted to the hospital with a recurring lung infection on June 8.

The Presidency said last week that he was in a critical, but stable condition.

President Jacob Zuma reiterated his call for the nation to continue praying for Mandela. - Sapa
