The business legend was born on December 24, at Lenyenye in what is now Limpopo province.

Maponya was the founding president of the National African Federated Chamber of Commerce and Industry , which was started in 1964 to serve the interests of small businesses.“Why should I retire? We need to create jobs for our people. That is my primary objective,” he said at the age of 82. “I have been blessed beyond measure and am able to put food on the table; I want the same for others.”

“The only time when I am going to retire is when you are going to be saying to me ‘lala kahle’, rest in peace’. That is going to be my biggest retirement.”
