As the leader of the most ‘successful’ ethnic homeland of the apartheid era, Bophuthatswana, Lucas Mangope was a controversial figure. His legacy still divides opinion to this day. A complex and polarising figure, some consider him a tin pot dictator whose rule was part of an immoral system riddled with corruption and repression, while others laud the infrastructural development and public services his administration delivered. Journalist Oupa Segalwe incisively examines the life of this politician, whose rise and fall coincided with the collapse of apartheid and that of the ill-advised homelands project. Segalwe compellingly traces how complex currents of self-enrichment, duty to his people, and serving the interests of all those he was indebted to played out.

Nuut op die rak: Wegkruiper
Daar is onheil op Onrus. Drie moorde wat skynbaar glad nie verband hou nie, net ’n vreemde verbintenis met ‘n pierewaaier eiendomsagent. Dan nog die meisies wat ook so aanhou ver-dwyn. Weet die grillerige fotograaf se vrou dalk iets? Speurder Lisamore Talakase se werk is uitgeknip vir hom in Christelle Wessels se vierde spanningsroman Wegkruiper. Hy is boonop nuut op Hermanus en nie in die bevelvoerder se goeie boekies nie, en moet hulp uit alle oorde kry om die moordenaar/s aan die pen te laat ry. Wegkruiper wys in watter nagmerrie ’n dorp ontaard wanneer die sondes van die verlede ’n gemeenskap inhaal. Die boek is in Julie bekendgestel en word deur Penguin/Random House uitgegee.
