Last week Friday we did a broadcast from the Kgosi Mapuru Prison in Pretoria and while we were discussing issues pertaining to the prison, several calls came through speaking about Kgosi Mampuru and who he was. This prompted us to then dwell into a discussion on the Bapedi people and who they are and also find out more about Kgosi Mampuru and the other Bapedi chiefs and kings.
