CoA to settle villagers' territorial logjam

The legal war that has been running for over a decade regarding choosing one common name to share as official name reached the CoA this week after residents of Matolwane filed an appeal.  Matolwane residents were not happy about an order that was made by the late Justice Moatlhodi Marumo of the High Court where both residents agreed to vote for a common name.

Their contention was that residents of Lesenepole wanted to be territorially superior, expecting their name to be the one used while an earlier agreement chose Matolwane.
