Former South African President Nelson Mandela is a "hero for the world," US President Barack Obama said during a visit to Senegal's capital Dakar.

"If or when Mandela passes away, his legacy will linger on through the ages," Obama said in front of 400 journalists at Dakar's presidential palace.

Obama will travel on Friday to South Africa, where Mandela is critically ill in hospital.
