John Maytham speaks to Andrew de Blocq MP, DA Spokesperson on Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment, who will explain how specialised enforcement, stronger border controls, and international cooperation are helping the country take a stand against wildlife trafficking — and why successful prosecutions are essential to ensuring poachers and kingpins alike face justice.
Afternoon Drive with John Maytham is the late afternoon show on CapeTalk.
Presenter John Maytham is an actor and author-turned-talk radio veteran and seasoned journalist. His show serves a round-up of local and international news coupled with the latest in business, sport, traffic and weather.
