Nelson Mandela is super special to Radio Lollipop – because we have a station in the Nelson Mandela Children\u2019s Hospital in Johannesburg! And also because of the high value Nelson Mandela placed on children and our treatment of them\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

There can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul, than the way in which it treats it’s children.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
