## Resource

This week DJ Fresh sits down with legendary investigative journalist Mzilikazi wa Afrika — the man who broke the Arms Deal story, exposed the R1.7-billion police lease scandal, got arrested for it, and made the Minister of Police apologise in writing. From rural Bushbuckridge to the most feared byline in South African journalism, via a deep-house album and a memoir called Nothing Left to Steal — this is a conversation about power, fear, corruption and the price of the truth.
