'The Bank of Lisbon fire was not the only fire to have sent Johannesburgs emergency services scurrying on Wednesday. Scores of people in the Angelo informal settlement in Boksburg lost their homes when a fire destroyed 30 of them.'
On September 29, 2016, the Mail & Guardian briefly published online an article dealing with mining rights on land controlled by the Bapedi.
The article carried the headline “Matthews Phosa’s ‘hidden hand’ in royal war reaps rich mineral rewards”.
The headline was in error. The article did not seek to suggest that Phosa had profited from secret dealings.
The article also misattributed, to Phosa, the statement that a deceased king had applied for mining rights on behalf of the Bapedi nation. Phosa made no such assertion.
The Mail & Guardian regrets the errors.
