We celebrate Mandela Day on this Afternoon express addition.

Joining us today is Global Icon Yvonne Chaka Chaka. She shares with us her memories of Tata Madiba and gives her view on why this year it’s so important to celebrate Madiba’s birthday with everything that has been going on in the country.

We chat to fashion designer and business owner Andile Cele as we look into the importance of supporting small and local businesses so that they can grow. When you support local businesses you are not just supporting the business itself but the employees, suppliers and families in the community.

Karabo Mogane shares about his life and the challenges he's faced after his Idols reign.

Let's celebrate Madiba’s birthday with one of his favourite dishes - Mnqushu (samp) and oxtail. Chef Chewme makes her take on Mandela’s Mnqushu and Oxtail. Get the recipe on www.afternoonexpress.co.za/recipes
