Feso is a hair renewal product that stimulates dead hair follicles back to life and helps restore scalp tissues damaged by chemicals and traction alopecia. Feso reverses balding and receding hairline, moisturises the scalp, and stops dandruff. It is excellent for skin and hair. When used on hair, Feso loosens curls which are easier to manage. The loosening lasts for a week, a testament to the excellent conditioning effect on hair. As a result of the chemical processing of the hair, most African women have experienced hair loss which seems irreversible; as a Trichologist, cosmetologist, Founder and owner of a thriving chain of hair and beauty salons, Dr Kuda Mupawose decided to find a homegrown solution to the problem. Feso is the result of going back to our African indigenous knowledge systems to solve a problem. She joins Lerato Mbele for this week's instalment of the Entrepreneurial Edge.

Leadership Dialogue with Mbali Ntuli

The role of traditional leaders has come under the spotlight as South Africa’s parliament proposed the Traditional and Khoi-San Leadership Act 3 of 2019 (TKLA) as a mechanism to govern traditional councils based on the governance framework set in the Bantu Act of 1951. Alarm bells on the implementation of this act have been raised by members of communities where traditional leaders operate, this issue has made its way to the highest Court in the land and set the table for two sides of the spectrum. On the one side, the StopTheBantustans Campaign which operates on behalf of the communities, filed an appeal against the passing of TKLA as they have evidence that the flawed public participation process has denied citizens living in rural communities of their rights and state that TKLA gives unbalanced power to traditional leaders. The argument is caused by the belief that TKLA opens avenues for traditional leaders to sign financial contracts with profit seeking companies without being compelled to consult with members of their communities thereby violating their livelihood. On the opposite side are traditional leaders themselves, who are represented by amongst others CONTRALESA, insist that they are responsible custodians who seek to apply TKLA in a manner that is responsible and benefits the communities. Land Activist and National Coordinator for the Stop the Bantustans Campaign Constance Mogale joins Lerato Mbele for the conversation.
