I have interviewed a variety of people from my former Ntabazinduna homeland chief Felix Nhlanhlayamangwe Ndiweni to David Coltart to Prudence Katomeni-Mbofana; from Bulelwa ‘Zahara’ Mkutukana to Mthokozisi ‘DJ Tira’ Khathi to Themba ‘Euphonik/Themba’ Nkosi; from Carla Kabamba to Patience “Mama G” “Mama Azuka” Ozokwor.
