Guest on the line: Mandisa Mbangi –South African Musician, Poet, Dancer etc

My name is Mandisa Mbangi, I was born in

Eastern Cape (Tsomo) in 1974. I then went to stay in Johannesburg, Mahikeng and Botswana

(Gaborone, Rakhuna).

I started poetry and traditional dance and music at primary level. Most of my skill is also drawn from my experience as a herd-girl. I also had the love for Bead craft, which is one of my strong points.

I’m currently studying music where I am learning acoustic guitar. I recorded my debut album in 2008 titles “Good Morning South Africa”. I’ve just recorded my second album titled “I’m Back”.

We are told they nearly got divorced and now they are back together and they are here to share their story with us tonight on the Late Night Conversations.

This September, Prostate Cancer Awareness month, The Urology Hospital will participate in the “I took the Test” campaign in partnership with Astellas and The Prostate Cancer Foundation by providing free PSA tests.

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer affecting men in SA and showing significant increases. The lifetime risk for prostate cancer in men in South Africa is approximately 1 in 4 for Black African men and 1 in 8 for white males. International and local research indicates that the risk for aggressive prostate cancer is higher in black men.

Race is a major risk factor for prostate cancer, with black African men having a 60 percent increased risk for prostate cancer. They’re also about 2,5 times more likely to die from the disease than other races. “It is greatly recommended that men of African origin screen from the age of 40 and that other ethnic groups start from 45. Early detection is key and those with a family history of prostate cancer should be screened often.”” says Malcolm Anthony, Chief Executive Officer at the Urology Hospital.
