The 1 hour 40 minutes DVD is called Ntsoro Radikoloto. Talking to Showbiz yesterday, Keitumele said just like the title states Ntsoro is caught in between debts after borrowing money that he does not manage to repay. He points out that Ntsoro's antics allowed him to always convince people that he really needed the money as he moves from yard to yard giving different reasons as to why he needs the money.

Toki, who has been acting alongside Ntsoro in Ntsoro Le Toki is called Sehularo in this production. Sehularo and Ntsoro come up with a plan to make it look as if Ntsoro was dead after the people he owes camped outside the house, demanding their money from Ntsoro. Keitumele states that whilst the people wait outside for Ntsoro, Sehularo escapes using the back window to make a funeral programme and returns without the people noticing.

He then goes out to announce the death of Ntsoro to the people waiting outside declaring that he thought they had come to mourn with him. Convinced that Ntsoro was indeed dead - after seeing him in a coffin - they start making funeral plans with Sehularo.

One of them even suggests that they should cremate Ntsoro and others agree. It is at this point that Ntsoro sits up in his coffin and says that they should let him live because that way they can at least be assured of recovering their money. In shock, the people faint after they see the 'dead' Ntsoro stir to life.

The funny man Keitumele says that there will be a continuation of Ntsoro Radikoloto, as he is sure that viewers will love to see what happens to Ntsoro after he rises from the dead.

Keitumele told Showbiz that he came up with the concept to his upcoming offering after he realised that his audience like Ntsoro who is full of tricks; so he wanted to give the audience what they want.

He said that Ntsoro Radikoloto is different from his previous projects, as he feels he has matured a lot. Keitumele stated that people were complaining about the sound quality in his previous works, but they have changed equipment to ensure top quality.

He further says that as a brand Ntsoro is now going to schools as an initiative to promote performing arts in Botswana. 'Goodhope senior school recently got to enjoy a stand up comedy session with Ntsoro and his crew,' says the ever-energetic Keitumele adding that the students loved the performance.

He said that they are mostly targeting boarding schools, as entertainment does not come easily in such institutions.
