The old woman was born in Molepolole in 1929 and, like most of her peers then did not have the slightest inkling what the current generations might consider luxurious items such as hi-fi and television sets let alone access to technological advances like Facebook. But despite the lack of such facilities she still enjoyed life to the fullest.She could not play television games which otherwise appear exhilarating to the young generations yet she would find games like diketo, koi and mantlwane equally fulfilling.
Bolele is part of Matsosangwao regiment, which has been playing a pivotal role in the organisation of Annual Dithubaruba Cultural Festival.The event takes place at the old royal palace in Molepolole (Ga Mmakgosi ko Ntsweng) on August 31. While for many this Bakwena cultural event offers enthusiasts the opportunity to learn about the cultural and traditional practices that have identified Moruakgomo's tribe over the decades, it also provides that rare moment when she would be able to re-live her youthful years and display her cultural pride and awareness.
