Raised in Soweto by a God-fearing mother who made sure she instills the Word of God into him and hoped that whatever rubbish his father taught him wouldn’t stick and a cunning father who made sure that his son learns that in the world you survive. Robert grew up to be the trusted altar boy at church but things took a turn when greed and the weakness of ladies started looming greater and greater and led him into politics. From a mere party runner to councillor, and mayor and now premier, it’s needless to say Robert is the kind of man that is willing to go to extreme lengths just so he can get what he wants.
