Can South Africa solve its Zama Zama issues?
Zama Zamas are young, mostly illegal miners who are taking advantage of the mining industry in South Africa.\nThey have been in the news recently after being linked to a series of violent crimes.\nOn yesterday\u2019s episode, Mpho Lakaje heard about the gang rape of eight women near Johannesburg, which the Zama Zamas have been linked to. \nHe also heard that this is not the first such violence they have been accused of.\nOn today\u2019s episode, Mpho hears from South Africa\u2019s National Police Commisioner to hear what can be done about the situation.\nAnd with many Zama Zamas reportedly coming from neighbouring Lesotho, he hears from the communications minister and asks whether they can help South Africa with a solution.
