Africa's abandoned football legend...

Ndaye Mulamba hardly stands out in a crowd. He's a shuffling, stern, 60-year-old Congolese refugee, who struggles to speak English, and who passes unnoticed through the impoverished, crime-ridden townships that surround Cape Town.

Don't miss:

  2. Soccer captain in Nigeria shot dead after winning...
  3. Congo + soccer + witchcraft = 11 deaths...
  4. A child soldier in the Congo tells her story...
  5. Congo has become the world capital of rape, torture and mutilation...
