Bula Buka Publishers is proud to welcome Hosea Ramphekwa—award-winning journalist, author—to its growing family of African storytellers. His highly anticipated fourth book, Pitso Mosimane: Cry Baby or Misunderstood Genius?, will be available in bookstores across South Africa and the SADC region within the next few days.
Readers will soon find the book at leading retailers including Exclusive Books, Bargain Books, Takealot, and select independent bookstores.
With a writing career spanning over 15 years, Ramphekwa has earned his reputation as a compelling voice in sports journalism and African literature. His previous titles include:

In his latest work, Pitso Mosimane: Cry Baby or Misunderstood Genius?, Ramphekwa explores the triumphs, controversies, and contradictions of one of the most accomplished football coaches on the African continent. From his historic runs with Mamelodi Sundowns, Al Ahly, and Al-Ahli Saudi FC, to the fiery sideline clashes that have divided opinion, Pitso Mosimane is painted in full complexity—part tactician, part provocateur, part legend.
“Pitso’s story is layered. He is as loved as he is loathed. This book unpacks the rituals, routines, and rivalries that have made him a force in African football,” Ramphekwa told the Daily Sun.
A proud son of Tzaneen, Limpopo, Hosea is a graduate of the University of Limpopo, Rhodes University, and the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (New Delhi, India). His writing has featured in major publications such as The Star, DRUM, Sunday Independent, KickOff, and FARPost, and he is also an established editor, writing coach, and ghostwriter.
By joining Bula Buka Publishers, Ramphekwa aligns with a mission to empower storytellers, elevate African narratives, and deliver publishing with excellence, authenticity, and creative edge.
