“The more money you have, the more of a man you are. The more power you have, physical strength, political power. It’s all about dominating. We need to change this narrative because that’s not what makes a man” In this episode, Mpho Lakaje visits three fathers across Johannesburg in an attempt to understand what it takes to be a solid father. He sits down with Tumelo Mpanza, who is raising his son as a single parent. He speaks to Onkgopotse Motlhanke who has to juggle between running a business, being a father of two girls and a husband. He then ends his mini city tour at Craig Wilkinson’s office to discuss issues relating to fatherlessness. These conversations were inspired by a study released last month. It shows that paternity leave has quadrupled in Africa in recent times. This means, more men are now empowered to help look after their newly born babies.
