BNF president Duma Boko said recently in Mahalapye that the party's youth league plans to hold a memorial for Dr Koma, which will include the erection of a tombstone on his grave.  'The plan has now been adopted by the entire party, not the youth league alone,' he said.

He added that the media will be duly informed when the project gets underway.Koma's grave carries a rusty identity board despite the fact that he was a colossal figure who changed the political landscape of the country.

The man commands a lot of respect in Mahalapye for initiating the construction of Mahalapye Secondary School and a community hall in the town. Interestingly, the BNF was eventually formed at the school.
