In our regular Meqoqo slot Linda Fekisi interviews Director of the non-profit children's rights group Molo Songololo, Patric Solomons. Molo Songolo works mostly with children from poor and rural families. And one of its most important jobs is protecting our children from sexual abuse, exploitation and trafficking. The Journalist is a trailblazing South African media project that mentors young people and features the artistry of fine storytellers. Meqoqo, which directly translates to a collection of conversations in Sesotho, is a regular multimedia story in The Journalist's Spotlight section with host Linda Fekisi.  The Molo Songololo interview was shot on location at Sabria's, the Cosy Corner restaurant. It is a landmark that has been a gathering place and Meqoqo hub for Capetonians for many generations.
