Belief Matters: Rethinking the belief in "African Time" – is it really about being late?

Relebogile Mabotja speaks to Nhlanhla Kunene a Traditional Culture Enthusiast and Actor unpacking the meaning behind the concept of African Time. Is it simply an excuse for lateness, or is there a deeper cultural philosophy at play?
