    Jomo Sono

    South African footballer

    Ephraim Matsilele SonoOIS (born Madoda Walletjies Mkulwana,[1] 17 July 1955), better known as Jomo Sono, is a South African football club owner, coach and former professional footballer.

    He has been variously nicknamed the "Black Prince of South African Soccer",[2] "Bra J"[3] and "Mjomana".[4]

    Early life and football career

    Sono was born in Soweto, South Africa.

    When he was eight years old, his father Eric Bhamuza Sono, who was a midfielder for the Orlando Pirates football team in the early 1960s, died as a result of a car crash. Soon after, his mother abandoned him.[5] Consequently, Sono was left in the care of his ailing grandparents; as they were very poor, he had to resort to selling apples and peanuts at football games and train stations to clothe himself, buy food for his grandparents and pay school fees.

    Both his grandparents were born in the then Northern Transvaal at Valdezia
